Kibana instance in the stack monitoring section shows Memory: 1.9/4.0 GB  
Is that the memory given to the entire kibana instance????  
Can I increase this limit as the total RAM server got is 64 GB....

Why do you think you need to increase it?

coz sometimes it goes up to 99% and coz I have more resources available so why not properly utilize it?  
what are you suggesting?

Well unless you have issues with how it's responding etc, I wouldn't be too worried.

thanks Mark,  
umm actually dashboards take a little time to load (10-12 seconds when the timestamp is Last 15 minutes)  
and I'm not sure what should I do to get them to load quickly except that no issues.

Ok that could be Elasticsearch, so it might be worth creating a new topic over there and we can dig into it 🙂
