Not sure if this is a known issue, I had about 200 million docs and was running the cluster-wide count query of documents. The count was flipping back and forth, one time it said 199.9 and then flipped back to 200 and back to 199.x and so on. I noticed shard relocation during this time, not sure if it is related. I am using ElasticSearch 0.90.7 and Java 1.7 Update 45 Oracle. Any pointers ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
