Release notes

  • Adjusts the Logstash process nice value from 19 to 0 to be more in line with standard practices

What does this PR do?

Fixes #19189
Adjusts the Logstash process nice value from 19 to 0 to be more in line with standard practices.

Why is it important/What is the impact to the user?

Prevents Logstash from being silent performance bottleneck when deployed on a system with competing services.
Troubleshooting Logstash typically overlooks this nice value override, and there are no obvious signs that this is the cause of Logstash's performance being impacted.
