Hi There, We are running Elasticsearch version 8.8.1 (on prem) and have the following configuration. 3 coordinator nodes 3 dedicated master nodes 17 hot nodes 20 cold nodes 6 frozen nodes (Each frozen node has about 2000 plus shard pointers.). API calls such as \_xpack/usage (47s), \_node/stats are taking longer than 10s. Has anyone experienced similar behavior ? Thanks Murali ---

Scaling the frozen tier helped with the timeout issue. ---
