We see drastic performance problems when using the Elasticsearch bulk forwarder. The ineffecient
reduce
ingen-request-bulk-body
causes the problem because it usesstr
and thus copies the growing string for every element. Usingconcat
andstring/join
instead shows a gain in performance of more than 90% in our benchmarks.
