Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-3952:
-------------------------------------
Good idea in general. Last time we bumped Netty, however, we had a bad
surprise, because the memory allocation pattern of the pools changed, and
people were getting OOM exceptions.
We need to carefully validate the change.
> Bump Netty to 4.1

> Key: FLINK-3952
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3952
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core, Hadoop Compatibility
> Reporter: rektide de la fey
> Labels: netty
>
> Netty 4.1 is about to release final. This release has [a number of
> significant
> enhancements|http://netty.io/wiki/new-and-noteworthy-in-4.1.html], and in
> particular I find HTTP/2 codecs to be incredibly desirable to have.
> Additionally, hopefully, the [Hadoop patches for Netty
> 4.1|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11716] get some tests and
> get merged, & I believe if/when that happens it'll be important for Flink to
> also be using the new Netty minor version.
