Hey,  
try splitting your jsons to less keys or try to create keys that contains metadata on your keys (like if you got an id so dont make a key for every id, create a mapping key that his name is id and query him when you need specific id).  
And about the limit of fields, you configure it on the index settings and not on the elasticsearch.yml like this: [Total Fields Limit setting](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/total-fields-limit-setting/53004)
