I have created an Elasticsearch plugin. I want to check the Elasticsearch CPU load/usage after installing the Elasticsearch plugin and indexing some documents. I am pretty new to performance and data monitoring in Elasticsearch. Can anyone please tell me the process of monitoring the CPU usage due to the plugin?

You might be able to see it in hot threads, but I don't believe that Elasticsearch Monitoring tracks down to that level.
