Andrey created FLINK-6613: ----------------------------- Summary: OOM during reading big messages from Kafka Key: FLINK-6613 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6613 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.2.0 Reporter: Andrey
Steps to reproduce: 1) Setup Task manager with 2G heap size 2) Setup job that reads messages from Kafka 10 (i.e. FlinkKafkaConsumer010) 3) Send 3300 messages each 635Kb. So total size is ~2G 4) OOM in task manager. According to heap dump: 1) KafkaConsumerThread read messages with total size ~1G. 2) Pass them to the next operator using org.apache.flink.streaming.connectors.kafka.internal.Handover 3) Then began to read another batch of messages. 4) Task manager was able to read next batch of ~500Mb messages until OOM. Expected: 1) Either have constraint like "number of messages in-flight" OR 2) Read next batch of messages only when previous batch processed OR 3) Any other option which will solve OOM. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
