Hello, is it possible to search Splunk for list of concurrent searches usage over time by searching internal log?

Converted to answer, because I think it's an answer. 🙂

Also, perhaps to add to that just a tiny bit:

index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd source=*metrics.log group=search_concurrency earliest=-1w
| timechart max(active_hist_searches), max(active_realtime_searches)

Which will show the last week's worth. Do line chart.
