Hello Alvaro Victoriano.

As you mentioned, the max-old-space-size option sets the heap limit in node. It should be configured in /etc/default/kibana:
NODE_OPTIONS="--max-old-space-size=4096"

If you have kibana and Elasticsearch in the same node, you have interest to tune your Elasticsearch to enhance its performance :

Let me know if you have further questions.
Regards,
Rafa.
