Hello, I have a program, continuing to submit bulk to Elasticsearch, each bulk has 5000 documents, the number of concurrent requests is 8, such lasted several hours later, the program appeared timeout error: 2014-09-12 09:23:29,092 INFO [org.elasticsearch.client.transport] - \<[James Jaspers] failed to get node info for [#transport#-1][node1][inet[/192.60.9.4:9300]], disconnecting...\> org.elasticsearch.transport.ReceiveTimeoutTransportException: [][inet[/192.60.9.4:9300]][cluster/nodes/info] request\_id [202756] timed out after [5000ms] at org.elasticsearch.transport.TransportService$TimeoutHandler.run(TransportService.java:356) ~[elasticsearch-1.1.2.jar:na] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:895) [na:1.6.0\_45] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:918) [na:1.6.0\_45] at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) [na:1.6.0\_45] My elasticsearch.yml reads as follows: index.merge.policy.max\_merged\_segment: 1gb index.merge.policy.segments\_per\_tier: 4 index.merge.policy.max\_merge\_at\_once: 4 index.merge.policy.max\_merge\_at\_once\_explicit: 4 index.merge.scheduler.max\_thread\_count: 1 indices.memory.index\_buffer\_size: 33% indices.store.throttle.type: none threadpool.merge.type: fixed threadpool.merge.size: 4 threadpool.merge.queue\_size: 32 threadpool.bulk.type: fixed threadpool.bulk.size: 12 threadpool.bulk.queue\_size: 32 bootstrap.mlockall: true node.max\_local\_storage\_nodes: 2 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
