What would be the consequences of having abusive requests? Slowness or crash?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

seems like Kibana search limit is by default 10000. I Increated it up to 20000. This 10000 limit is set for a reason. It protects the cluster from abusively large search requests

PUT /ticker_quote_*/_settings
{
"index" : {
"max_result_window" : 20000
}
}

My Concerns: "what would be the consequences of having abusive requests? Slowness or crash?"

It could be either and depends a lot on the type of query used.
