Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch takes longer than the specified timeout period to close client connections. This could be due to network issues, high server load, or inefficient queries. To resolve this issue, you can increase the timeout period, optimize your queries for better performance, or scale your Elasticsearch cluster to handle more load. Additionally, ensure your network is stable and has sufficient bandwidth to handle the data traffic.

}
}
if (closed == false) {
try {
