  • index compression : not use

  • size of index : 7.89G

Hi,

What version of Elasticsearch are you using and how do you enable/disable
compression?

= version of Elasticsearch
1.1.1

= how do you enable/disable compression?

  • index compression enable => index.store.compress.stored : true

  • index compression disable => default or index.store.compress.stored : false

  • _source compression enable => default or "_source" : { "compress" : true }

  • _source compression disable => "_source" : { "compress" : false }

= about _source compression :
I got some answer about _source compression from expert of elastic search.
He said that "source compression works, but it only make sense for really large docs, since there is already block compression on Lucene level. You should not turn it on 99% of the time".
