Hi,
I was going through one of discussion for "Only send diff of cluster state instead of full cluster state"
>
I would like to know what is frequency Master node update cluster state and other nodes gets updated with cluster state.
Is there any setting for updated cluster state broadcasting to other nodes.
Thanks,
Amit Sinha.

The cluster state is updated and replicated as soon as there are changes to it, e.g. changes to mappings, new indices or relocation of shards. The frequency therefore depends on how you use your cluster.
