Hey all,

I have a single node cluster with a few hundred indices, with each index  
broken up into a few (between 2-8) types. I attempted a restart of the  
cluster, and now it's pounding on the CPU and not really indexing anything.  
ES is also pouring into the logs messages of the following flavor:

parsed mapping [_default_], and got different sources  
original:  
{"_default_":{"\_source":{"compress":true},"\_size":{"enabled":true,"store":"yes"},"properties":{}}}  
parsed:  
{"_default_":{"\_size":{"enabled":true,"store":"yes"},"\_source":{"compress":true},"properties":{}}}

It should be the same document, except for the order? Is there something I  
did wrong?

Cheers for any help you can provide!  
Matt

Found the problem..., opened an issue:  
[Using root object level mapping (\_size, \_source) can cause reparsing of the mapping on startup · Issue #1458 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/1458), will be fixed  
in 0.18 and master.
