With 1M docs, I would use one shard too, the overhead of the distribution may be bigger than the time it takes to process a query on a single node with an index this size (I do encourage you to test and see, because it usually depends on more factors than just the index size, but I think 1 shard will be the best).

That said, you may see some improvements if you execute the DIH on the leader node (which may not always be the same). I don't think the dataimport.properties gets distributed though, you may have to figure that out.
