Right, there are several alternatives. Try going here: http://jirasearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?index=jira
and search for “circuit breaker” and you’ll find a bunch of JIRAs. Unfortunately, some are in 8.8.. That said, some of the circuit breakers are in much earlier releases. Would it suffice until you can upgrade to set the circuit breakers? One problem with your solution is that the query keeps on running, admittedly on only one replica of each shard. With circuit breakers, the query itself is stoped, thus freeing up resources. Additionally, if you see a pattern (for instance, certain wildcard patterns) you could intercept that before sending.
