Which of the following actions can improve overall search performance?

Disabling indexed real-time search can indeed improve overall search performance within Splunk. When indexed real-time search is enabled, Splunk continuously monitors newly indexed data for search queries in real-time. This process can be resource-intensive, particularly in environments with large volumes of incoming data. As a result, it can lead to performance degradation for other searches and queries that may be more critical.

By disabling or limiting indexed real-time search, you reduce the computational load on the Splunk infrastructure, allowing system resources to be better allocated to other searches, especially those that are scheduled or ad hoc. This can lead to faster response times and increased efficiency for those crucial searches.

Other actions mentioned may improve specific aspects of search or event management, but they do not have the same broad impact on overall search performance as disabling indexed real-time searches does. For instance, increasing the priority of all correlation searches could lead to resource contention, negatively affecting performance instead of enhancing it. Similarly, reducing the frequency of lower-priority searches or adding notable event suppressions might help manage resources more effectively, but they primarily target specific issues rather than enhance the overarching search performance across the board.
