Filebeat can operate load-balancing in 3 different modes:

  1. send to one host after another
  2. send to N hosts in lock-step (with spool_size = N * bulk_max_size)
  3. send fully in parallel and async (publish_async: true)

All modes employ a difference in memory/cpu usage. With 1. requiring the least and 3. requiring the most resources.
