Kibana 8.18 search results slow "Loading results"

[Dave_Houser]

We upgraded our ECK env to 8.18 + all clusters.
I noticed that with Kibana 8.18, when I use the search bar, it's very slow, usually just hangs on "loading results". I used to be able to search for most anything in the search bar, even dashboard names. But not it just hangs. At some point it gives results, but its much slower than our previous version (8.13)
Is this expected? Is there a way to fix this? Is this a known bug?

Hi @Dave_Houser

Way to general of a question.

What I would do is:
Run one of your slow queries in Discover
Go to inspect
Grab the query
And the run it in the profiler to see what is going on

Then come back with some details and perhaps someone can help.

Sorry for late reply.
@stephenb I am not sure I am following what you are suggesting. Is there a guide online to perform the steps your suggesting? There is a way to inspect searching from the Kibana search bar?

1. Run Query in Discover add the filters you want etc...

2. Go To Inspect Notice top Level Metrics

3. Go To Request and Open in Profiler

4. Look at profiler for long items
