Why the bashing on Elasticsearch? We are using it to index log files; we have over 275 million documents in our index and performance has been pretty impressive.

What kind of hardware are you running that on? We are setting up a larger cluster, and are interested in the config of others. Thnx!

We're running on five EC2 instances, each instance is running Elasticsearch configured to use 25GB of RAM. With the current data set we might be able to get by with less RAM, we're still in the process of figuring out what works best for us.
