Found that this was caused by KQL's auto-suggest queries running against all indices that match the index pattern and not just the indices that match the time range selected. Disabled filterEditor:suggestValues to Off in Kibana's advanced settings and performance returned to normal.

See this thread for more detail: [KQL-related performance issue](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kql-related-performance-issue/199420/7)
