Hello ES,

With curl showing the index statistics as below:

$ curl '[http://localhost:9200/\_cat/indices?v](http://localhost:9200/_cat/indices?v)'  
health index pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size  
green twitter 1 0 0 0 123b 123b

123b is the index size? and where does this information comes from? shard  
state file? index state file or global file?

/data/nodes/0/indices/twitter/0/\_state/state-2  
/data/nodes/0/indices/twitter/0/index/segments\_1  
/data/nodes/0/indices/twitter/0/index/segments.gen  
/data/nodes/0/indices/twitter/\_state/state-1  
/data/nodes/0/\_state/global-1

Thank you.

Jason
