This is a DEV env. I've got 24G of RAM on all 4 machines. 12G for ES and 
12G for the OS. I believe the machines are quad core HP Z-800's.

I will not be inserting at this rate very often. My question is more 
operational. How do you recover from the place I am in? If I kill -9 the ES 
process on node 2 I believe I will put my cluster in the red state. 

I did get into this unhappy spot once before. After trying to shut down ES 
on node 2 I eventually kill -9'd it. At that point my cluster was in the 
red state and unable to service requests. The "unassigned_shards" number 
was not changing. I have daily indexes so I simply deleted the most recent 
daily index and rebuilt it. At this point my cluster had all 4 nodes and 
was green again. In production this approach is not popular with mgmt. so 
I'm trying to understand a less heavy handed approach ;-)
