To improve Splunk performance, parallelIngestionPipelines setting can be adjusted on which of the following components...

 The parallelIngestionPipelines setting can be adjusted on the indexers and forwarders to improve Splunk performance. The parallelIngestionPipelines setting determines how many concurrent data pipelines are used to process the incoming data. Increasing the parallelIngestionPipelines setting can improve the data ingestion and indexing throughput, especially for high-volume data sources. The parallelIngestionPipelines setting can be adjusted on the indexers and forwarders by editing the limits.conf file. The parallelIngestionPipelines setting cannot be adjusted on the search head or the cluster master, because they are not involved in the data ingestion and indexing process.
