I'm using Rally to simulate an Elasticsearch single node receiving logs on by one.

The following parameter of track.json:

```auto
        "bulk-size": 1,
        "ingest-percentage": {{ingest_percentage | default(100.0)}}

```

Should make Elasticsearch index 100% of the docs one by one. (If I understand it right)  
Except that when Rally run the bulk, it's slowy getting done (normal)  
but it get stuck at

```auto
Running bulk [100% done]

```

Any idea why it get stuck?

Can you please share `~/.rally/logs/rally.log` and `~/.rally/logs/actor-system-internal.log`?
