This Bonsuche mit folgender Anfrage: Belegart->\[%{WORD:param2},(?<param5>(\s*%{NOTSPACE})*)\] Zustand->ABGESCHLOSSEN Kassennummer->%{WORD:param9} Bonnummer->%{WORD:param10} Datum->%{DATESTAMP_OTHER:param11} not so complicated Grok pattern matched against Bonsuche mit folgender Anfrage: Belegart->[EINGESCHRAENKTER_VERKAUF, VERKAUF, NACHERFASSUNG] Zustand->ABGESCHLOSSEN Kassennummer->2 Bonnummer->6362 Datum->Mon Jan 08 00:00:00 UTC 2018 which I entered into the GROK Debugger in Kibana, crashed my whole cluster, by putting the CPU load on my proxy nodes to 100%. I had to restart them! Any idea whats going on here?

I was able to repeat this and every time the CPU usage would remain near 90% for hours on the proxy nodes till I restart them.

Elasticsearch-Version: 6.1.3 (Now updated to 6.2.1 problem still persists)

We were able to reproduce this on different clusters.
