So how can I define the output queue configuration?
I found the omelasticsearch action process 60000/min, and the
queue.discarded.nf was 600000.
I run `tcpdump -i eth1 -s0 -A 'tcp dst port 9200'  | grep Content-Length`
and saw the length is 1.6k. As my msgline size is 0.1k, the bulk size is
only 10. Too small.

Sometimes when I restart rsyslogd, the Content-Length grows to 8MB. Why~~
