@@ -223,7 +223,7 @@ The following Elasticsearch settings are available:
| `Number of Elasticsearch shards` | Elasticsearch indices are split into multiple shards for performance reasons. In general, you should use at least 5 shards, and indices with tens of millions of documents need to have more shards ([see below](#guidance-on-choosing-optimal-cluster-configuration)). Changes to this value do not take effect until the index is recreated. You can read more about tradeoffs in the [Elasticsearch documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/scalability.html). |
| `Number of Elasticsearch replicas` | Each Elasticsearch shard can have a number of replicas. These are a complete copy of the shard, and can provide increased query performance or resilience against hardware failure. Increasing this value increases total disk space required by the index. |
| `Limit the number of namespaces and projects that can be indexed` | Enabling this allows you to select namespaces and projects to index. All other namespaces and projects use database search instead. If you enable this option but do not select any namespaces or projects, none are indexed. [Read more below](#limit-the-number-of-namespaces-and-projects-that-can-be-indexed).|
