Maximilian Michels created FLINK-2235: -----------------------------------------
Summary: Local Flink cluster allocates too much memory Key: FLINK-2235 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2235 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: Local Runtime, TaskManager Affects Versions: 0.9 Environment: Oracle JDK 1.6 Eclipse Reporter: Maximilian Michels Priority: Minor When executing a Flink job locally, the task manager gets initialized with an insane amount of memory. After a quick look in the code it seems that the call to {{EnvironmentInformation.getSizeOfFreeHeapMemoryWithDefrag()}} returns a wrong estimate of the heap memory size. Moreover, the same user switched to Oracle JDK 1.8 and that made the error disappear. So I'm guessing this is some Java 1.6 quirk. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
