Charts report different rates depending on the period.
This apply to all X-pack monitoring charts from Kibana.
Here is an example with "Beat" monitoring, with the period " week to date":

Let's zoom on that day:
ok so now it says it's 300 000 events/s? still crazy number
Let's zoom again:
much more reasonnable,
But let's zoom again becasue I don't remember this rate:
Up to 15k e/s, this one is correct
Sounds like a bug right?
The same apply to Elasticsearch and logstash, but this time it increases while I reduce the period. Weekto date with LS:
If I zoom max:
The latter is correct, I remember this test, I was checking with iostats and the metric logstahs plugin at the same time.
thanks,
