Hello,

I'm having some issues with some requests that timeout on _Dev Tools_ and returns `stream timeout`.

I change the `elasticsearch.requestTimeout` setting to `300000` which means 5 minutes, but Kibana stills timeout around 30s.

What else should I look and change to troubleshoot this?

After each timeout I have a line like this one in the logs:

```auto
{"service":{"node":{"roles":["background_tasks","ui"]}},"ecs":{"version":"8.4.0"},"@timestamp":"2023-01-06T15:48:22.233+00:00","message":"Client request timeout","error":{"message":"Client request timeout","type":"Error","stack_trace":"Error: Client request timeout\n at Timeout._onTimeout (/usr/share/kibana/src/plugins/console/server/lib/proxy_request.js:104:37)\n at listOnTimeout (node:internal/timers:559:17)\n at processTimers (node:internal/timers:502:7)"},"log":{"level":"ERROR","logger":"plugins.console"},"process":{"pid":696977},"trace":{"id":"258092a6b8bad61e744a10acd8721ebf"},"transaction":{"id":"a406ec01caf41c6c"}}

```

The Kibana service was already restarted.

Well, a full stop and start solved the issue.
