Getting Data In

What settings do we have to change to improve Splunk forwarder memory usage?

Hello ,

We have problem with Splunk forwarder usage. Will limiting the maxkbps=0 increase the speed of CPU usage and also data transmission as out maxkbps=256(default).

Is it this that needs to be changed? Where we do we make this change? I can see this setting under the SplunkLightForwarder app in all the search heads and indexer.
