After the Elasticsearch client is initialized in elasticsearch-py==7.17.0 like so:

```auto
import elasticsearch
host = elasticsearch.Elasticsearch(get_elastic_url())

```

the client sends a get request to the root of the Elasticsearch from the specified url. This is what can be found in the info log:

```auto
GET http://elasticsearch:9200/ [status:200 request:0.041s]

```

Is it possible to disable this behaviour when the client is initialized frequently in several processes? Using the once initialized instance in multiple processes is an option of course, at this point I also looking for other solutions.
