Hello, I'm encountering some weird problems with our Kibana installation. When the app is running, I sometimes receive Timeout errors from the Discover page saying the 30000ms timeout is exceeded. (they appear faster then 30 seconds, not sure what's even there) After a while, Kibana just dies completely returning Timeout errors in Firefox. We use daily indeces on our ES in the back-end, and they're not abnormal large. I think our largest index is around 10GB? And we have a daily cron-job running that deletes indeces older then 7 days from ES. Is there anything I can do for more information, because this problem keeps happening on irregular basis and is really making the application useless at the moment. ---

Hm, I'm not sure why an error message would show up before 30 seconds passes. Is the index pattern loaded into Kibana using the optimized option for time-based events, as opposed to the deprecated option where event times create index names? ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/3/3560c94f6437b58f445e40e0c4dea7a178d4b2b9.png) ---

I've checked the settings of the patterns, and they are set using the `index contains time based events` and the one with `[DEPRECATED]` is not checked. ---
