Hi All, We are ingesting records continuously on elalsticsearch cluster and also firing search and update queries in parallel. We are refreshing elasticsearch indices in every 1 sec using http call. As we are observing, the elasticsearch got hung after certain amount of time. Are this problem is occurring due to continuous refreshing of indices? We also want to achieve near real time search.

When it hangs, it might help if you give us the output using hot\_threads API. > **[Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale](https://www.elastic.co)** > > Power insights and outcomes with the Elasticsearch Platform and AI.

Also, you don't need to use an http call to refresh indices. You can just provide the option index.refresh\_interval in the index template or elasticsearch.yml On Fri, May 31, 2013 at 1:30 PM, Ankit Jain [ankitjaincs06@gmail.com](mailto:ankitjaincs06@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi All, > > We are ingesting records continuously on elalsticsearch cluster and also > firing search and update queries in parallel. > > We are refreshing elasticsearch indices in every 1 sec using http call. > > As we are observing, the elasticsearch got hung after certain amount of > time.
