Unsure of growth of index when nothing happening (clean install)

Hi all, first time Elasticsearch user.

I am using Elastic as part of running SugarCRM 7 on-site, as it is a
pre-req. I have a clean Ubuntu 14.04 install with a LAMP stack and Java
installed. I have installed Elasticsearch using apt-get based on the
repository instructions on the Elastic site.

I installed Marvel to see what was happening, and straight away I am seeing
Index growth, even though nothing is happening on the box. I assume it was
some initial indexing as the service get configured, but I left it for a
week and it continued to grow. At this stage no one is using Sugar and
there is no data in it, so it should not be indexing anything.

After a week I have 500,000 documents in the index, and nearly a GB of data
consumed. How could this be?

I have just done a fresh re-install to try again, and it is indexing again.
The index requests on Marvel show a consistent 0.5 per second always.
Where could this be coming from, or how can I fidn out. How can I see
what all the documents allegedly are?

I am still in the process of configuring Sugar, but hesitant to start
loading data and going live until I am comfortable Elastic is running
properly.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Which index is growing?
Chances are it is the marvel index(es), which is expected.

Yes that is correct. Looks like a daily Marvel index is growing. Is this the plugin grabbing stats?

Grant,

Marvel collects ES stats and put's them in a daily index for historical
reference. You can decide how many days of history you then want to keep.
Curator ( GitHub - elastic/curator: Curator: Tending your Elasticsearch indices ) is a handy tool to use
in a cronjob to achieve this.

Cheers,
Boaz
