Hi Mike,
PFA the details you asked for: and some others if that helps:
we are using jvm params
-Xms8G
-Xmx8G
MAX_HEAP_SIZE: & HEAP_NEWSIZE: is not being set and possibly calculated
by calculate_heap_sizes function. (And we are using default calculations):
here are the results, pls correct me if im wrong :
system_memory_in_mb : 64544
system_cpu_cores : 16
for MAX_HEAP_SIZE:
# set max heap size based on the following
# max(min(1/2 ram, 1024MB), min(1/4 ram, 8GB))
# calculate 1/2 ram and cap to 1024MB
# calculate 1/4 ram and cap to 8192MB
# pick the max
By this I can figure out that MAX_HEAP_SIZE is 8GB - (From the first case &
third case)
max_sensible_yg_per_core_in_mb="100"
max_sensible_yg_in_mb=`expr $max_sensible_yg_per_core_in_mb "*"
$system_cpu_cores` - 100* 16 = 1600 MB
desired_yg_in_mb=`expr $max_heap_size_in_mb / 4 -------That comes out to
be- 8GB/4 = 2GB
if [ "$desired_yg_in_mb" -gt "$max_sensible_yg_in_mb" ]
then
HEAP_NEWSIZE="${max_sensible_yg_in_mb}M"
else
HEAP_NEWSIZE="${desired_yg_in_mb}M"
fi
That should set HEAP_NEWSIZE to 1600MB by first case.
memtable_allocation_type: heap_buffers
memtable_cleanup_threshold- we are using default:
# memtable_cleanup_threshold defaults to 1 / (memtable_flush_writers + 1)
# memtable_cleanup_threshold: 0.11
memtable_flush_writers - default (2)
we can increase this as we are using SSD with IOPS of around 300/s
memtable_heap_space_in_mb - default values
# memtable_heap_space_in_mb: 2048
# memtable_offheap_space_in_mb: 2048
We are using G1 garbage collector and jdk1.8.0_45
