ES create indexes\reindex are slow when using a synonym file

Hi @ryzhovas,

Welcome! Can you give us more information on your cluster (number of nodes and shards)?

I'm not sure if this is specifically a synonym issue, but it might be worth simulating the number of tokens generated using this file for a particular document using the _analyze API.

Otherwise, it might be down to cluster sizing but it's difficult to say. There are some tips in this thread too.
