Check [this](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/filebeat-slow-improve-performance/144717/11) and [this](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/configuring-internal-queue.html#configuring-internal-queue)

I would try to set values next params and test:

```auto
queue.mem:
  events: 4096
  flush.min_events: 512
  flush.timeout: 5s

```
