Hi! Nice to meet you all I'm having a problem with lag issues due to a sharp drop in search rate  
In other words, the APIs that request a search to elasticseach are experiencing a timeout.

I think the image below will explain

One last thing to say  
It's a new index and it's only happening right after it started receiving request traffic, so I think it's because of the query cache, but there are a lot of experts here, so thank you for your advice!
