Hello,

I am also looking for some documentation on prioritization among Users and Tokens in Cluster.

Also, is there some kind of priority that we can set between indexing-load and querying-load ?  
Reason for asking this question: I just want o set limits on a particular username so that it doesn't consume elastic core resources by one expensive query.

Thanks in advance !

There is as far as I know no way to porioritize certain users or types of load in Elasticsearch.

There's not, no. This is something you'd need to currently build yourself.
