Daniel Harper commented on FLINK-10317: --------------------------------------- Note the cause of the above issue is related to an issue with BEAM https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-6460 > Configure Metaspace size by default > ----------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-10317 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10317 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Startup Shell Scripts > Affects Versions: 1.5.3, 1.6.0, 1.7.0 > Reporter: Stephan Ewen > Priority: Major > Fix For: 1.6.4, 1.7.2, 1.8.0 > > Attachments: Screen Shot 2019-01-07 at 10.08.39.png, Screen Shot > 2019-01-07 at 10.08.47.png, Screenshot 2018-12-18 at 12.14.11.png > > > We should set the size of the JVM Metaspace to a sane default, like > {{-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=256m}}. > If not set, the JVM offheap memory will grow indefinitely with repeated > classloading and Jitting, eventually exceeding allowed memory on docker/yarn > or similar setups. > It is hard to come up with a good default, however, I believe the error > messages one gets when metaspace is too small are easy to understand (and > easy to take action), while it is very hard to figure out why the memory > footprint keeps growing steadily and infinitely. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
