Hello Support, I would like to know the implications for turning on swap on a Linux host.
Tell Linux you never want NiFi to swap Swapping is fantastic for some applications. It isn't good for something like NiFi that always wants to be running. To tell Linux you'd like swapping off, you can edit /etc/sysctl.conf to add the following line vm.swappiness = 0 For the partitions handling the various NiFi repos, turn off things like atime. Doing so can cause a surprising bump in throughput. Edit the /etc/fstab file and for the partition(s) of interest, add the noatime option. Regards, James Boatwright
