Description

Currently we have the following retry configuration for elastichsearch:

    public static final String BULK_RETRIES = "bulkRetries";
    public static final int BULK_RETRIES_DEFAULT = 3;

    public static final String BULK_RETRIES_BACKOFF = "bulkRetriesBackoff";
    public static final long BULK_RETRIES_BACKOFF_DEFAULT = 200;

This does not really protect against network hiccups which can take longer. I would suggest either 5 retries with 500 backoff or 3 retries with 1s backoff.
