The capacity of shards that a data node can accommodate is directly related to the size of its heap memory.

Specifically, a node equipped with 30GB of heap memory should ideally not exceed 600 shards.

Exceeding the recommended shard-to-memory ratio can lead to inefficiencies.

For instance, if your nodes are handling more than 20 shards per GB of heap memory, this could be a sign of overload.
