I was getting some JVM Heap errors and I was looking up on how to set all of that properly. I saw in ES documentation to set it at 50% of available memory (I have 8G total) up to 32G. But which one do I set - LS or ES or both? Do they need to be identical or 50% of 50% in each?

Jvm.options - elasticsearch and logstash?

Logstash shouldn't need as much heap, I have 2G, 8 pipelines (3 active) with about 500 events per second. It probably depends what you do in the pipelines.
