{es} 7.10 improves indexing speed by up to 20%. We've reduced the coordination

needed to add entries to the <<index-modules-translog,transaction log>>. This

reduction allows for more concurrency and increases the transaction log buffer
34+
size from `8KB` to `1MB`. However, performance gains are lower for
35+
full-text search and other analysis-intensive use cases. The heavier the
36+
indexing chain, the lower the gains, so indexing chains that involve many
37+
fields, ingest pipelines or full-text indexing will see lower gains.
