Hi all,

I recently been having my cluster CPUs usage going to 100% on a 4 Node  
cluster for a while now. Load averages were in the 20s across all 4 nodes  
which is not good. I did a curl "localhost:9200/\_nodes/stats/http?pretty"

My fluent host is a client node and hosts kibana3 and from this it keeps  
opening up http sessions almost every second.

My question is Kibana 4 better optimized to handle larger amounts of Data?

And below is what poped up:
