I am sending data from Logstash to Elasticsearch. (filebeat -\> kafka -\> logstash -\> elasticsearch) I want to know the Logstash Event Per Second(EPS) (it is assumed that the environment of Elasticsearch is the same.) Please let me know if there is a good way to test EPS without using the x-pack ---

There is an [API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/monitoring-logstash.html) for Logstash but I've never used it and unsure you can get exactly what you need from it. I would look at the Node Stats API first. ---
