Hello,

I'm migrating all indices from an old server to a new one via remote reindexing but i'm having bandwidth limitation of ~ 60Mbit/s. The servers are connected with a cat6 crossover ethernet cable so bandwidth usage is not a problem.

Is it possible to configure elasticsearch to use more bandwidth while remote reindexing?
