Pretty much everything. This is a front-end developers worst nightmare. Even with training our team struggled to understand how to use this CMS. What benefit it actually brings for its price is still a mystery to me.

Liferay is a solid portal, implemented in Java. The source is right there, so I can figure out how things work when I need to develop my own contributions.

To reduce the reindex time for a large index, consider the following strategies:
1. Increase the number of shards: Distribute the index across more shards to parallelize the reindexing process.
2. Use a faster storage: Ensure that the storage system used for the index is optimized for speed, such as using SSDs instead of HDDs.
3. Optimize the source index: Remove unnecessary fields and reduce the size of documents in the source index to speed up the reindexing process.
4. Use bulk requests: Reindex data in bulk to reduce the overhead of individual requests.
5. Adjust the refresh interval: Temporarily increase the refresh interval of the target index to reduce the overhead of frequent refreshes during reindexing.
6. Throttle the reindexing process: Use the `requests_per_second` parameter to control the rate of reindexing and prevent overwhelming the cluster.
7. Use parallel reindexing: If possible, run multiple reindexing tasks in parallel to speed up the process.
8. Monitor and optimize cluster performance: Ensure that the cluster is not overloaded and has sufficient resources to handle the reindexing task efficiently.
