@David, that makes sense. We have SSDs and replicas are already set to 0 
while bulk indexing.

@Jörg, we haven't changed the "threadpool.bulk.size" because according to 
the docs that's directly related to the number of processors available. 
However "threadpool.bulk.queue_size" has been modified. I'm slowly tuning 
it down to find a sweetspot, but the default 
seems a but too low.
