Hello,

Hoping to find a little help here after unsuccessfully googling quite a bit.

I've successfully setup the latest dev version of ntopng to dump flows
using --dump-flows into elasticsearch.  Elasticsearch is on the same
machine as ntopng.  My total traffic volume to process is about ~130Mbps
peak.

It works very well, but i think i am losing a lot of flows in the export
process.

My ntopng log file is rapidly filled (at the rate of ~600 per second) like
the following:

29/Jun/2016 01:26:02 [ElasticSearch.cpp:64] WARNING: [ES] Message dropped.
Total messages dropped: 2799026

However, I don't think this is an elasticsearch capacity problem, because I
am not seeing the errors in elasticsearch.log that would normally accompany
elasticsearch running out of capacity.  I'm monitoring iostat, system load,
and elasticsearch performance via marvel - and those all look good.

I'm not sure where to look next for more information about what might be
causing the "message dropped" logs.

Any help much appreciated!

Andris
