I have large index with high volume of data. one shard is 20gig, Lets say two index per day from six month = 360 index with billions of record combine. when I run following it timesout ```auto select x,y,z from myidex-* where @timestamp > now() - interval 5 minutes ``` But if I run following it works ```auto select x,y,z from mydex-2023.04* where @timestamp > now() - interval 5 minutes ``` is it because myindex-\* data view has 360 index and myindex-2023.04 only has handful of index for it ? ---
