Hi All,

we have recently upgraded our production server from version 1.1.0 to  
1.4.3. We actually imported the data from old cluster to new cluster with  
minor data and mapping removals. But as compared to previous version, the  
performance has been decreased. Many requests returning the time out in  
response. The application has broken, as we are using it as a source of  
data reads.

Our cluster is having 3 nodes of configurations of 8 core, 60GB RAM. Is  
there any default settings changes that can cause such side effects. I am  
facing issues like,  
search requests are very slow  
data retrieval after saving is not instant.

Please let me know the area to work on. All help or guidance will be  
appreciated.

Thanks

That depends on what your settings, your data and your queries are like.

If you can gist/pastebin/etc your config and query and document samples,  
and provide some details around your cluster size and architecture, as well  
as where you are seeing slowness, then it will make the troubleshooting  
process a lot easier.
