Project history
This is a fork of https://github.com/crashdump/logstash-elasticsearch-scripts.
Since ElasticSearch 0.90 all fields are compressed, and some benchmarks show that nothing improves optimizing those already compressed indices. That's why this fork does not include the original logstash_index_optimize.py
