Hello Community,

In your experiences how many transaction or events can do per hour any device with agent?  
what about network devices?

hope your comments.  
Regards!

I assume you mean the endpoint agent? Because "Elastic Agent" is just a supervisor agent that runs normal beats and the new endpoint agent.  
I just deployed it to two test machines. I'm searching for "event.module:endpoint" and timerange is 24h.

- Windows Fileserver with low usage: 140.000 log entries
- Linux Webserver with moderate usage (a few docker apps with \<10 concurrent active users): 3 million log entries

Not sure if the Linux usage is normal. elastic-endpoint is causing about 200% relative CPU:

EDIT: just rebooted the linux host, usage went to normal UNTIL i started my [Collabora](https://www.collaboraoffice.com/) app. It seems to absolutely ruin the Endpoint Agents performance. If this persists, I might try to dive deeper into the behaviour.
