=== Field data cache settings
|
|
|
|
The field data cache is used mainly when sorting on or computing aggregations
|
|
on a field. It loads all the field values to memory in order to provide fast
|
|
document based access to those values. The field data cache can be
|
|
expensive to build for a field, so its recommended to have enough memory
|
|
to allocate it, and to keep it loaded.
|
|
|
|
The amount of memory used for the field
|
|
data cache can be controlled using `indices.fielddata.cache.size`. Note:
|
|
reloading the field data which does not fit into your cache will be expensive
|
|
and perform poorly.
|
|
|
|
`indices.fielddata.cache.size`::
|
|
|
|
The max size of the field data cache, eg `30%` of node heap space, or an
|
|
absolute value, eg `12GB`. Defaults to unbounded. Also see
|
|
<<fielddata-circuit-breaker>>.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: These are static settings which must be configured on every data node in
|
|
the cluster.

==== Monitoring field data
|
|
|
|
You can monitor memory usage for field data as well as the field data circuit
|
|
breaker using
|
|
<<cluster-nodes-stats,Nodes Stats API>>
