I have 4GB JVM heap and continuous transform with filtered search throws this errors in logs and stops with "failed" state after some period.

```
Insufficient memory for search, reducing number of buckets per search from [43] to [36]
...
Insufficient memory for search after repeated page size reductions to [10], unable to continue pivot, please simplify job or increase heap size on data nodes.

```

Do i need to increase heap or i need to remove query from transform, i'm filtering data by year through query in transform, maybe absence of query will decrease heap usage?
