I have 20 indexers and I have getting this error while running dmesg from one particular indexer:

[8459645.678270] perf: interrupt took too long (6226 > 6166), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 32000

What could be the reason for this?

I'd suggest to open a support case about this and attach a diag. Hard to take a guess here without further information.
