Disable Console Output in Logstash 7.10
What log level are you set to in logstash.yml? The default log level is "info" which is pretty chatty. I set mine to "error". See https://github.com/elastic/logstash/blob/master/config/logstash.yml#L248.

Murmur3 hash plugin for nested objects?
I don't think the murmur3 hash implementation has changed since it was added as the default in version 2.0 (see the [changes](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/commits/main/server/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/cluster/routing/Murmur3HashFunction.java)). The plugin itself has seen [more changes](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/commits/main/plugins/mapper-murmur3) but that's IMO because of internals and not visible changes in the calculations.

Mongo or Mysql for 10tb of JSON documents, I'm questioning my previous choice.
Mysql is not as open source as postgres (long story). And you can see how open elasticsearch is by just having access to the bugs database https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issue
