Does it need optimising?

You're trying to find src values with more than 300 events in a 45s period. 

What is the context? Is it part of a dashboard and what is the wider time period. Optimisations can be done using summary indexes, where you calculate these counts using a scheduled search and then your query can then search the summary which will only contain the results of that query as opposed to the raw data.
