Hi Team,
I have 64GB of total system memory. 5 node cluster.
xxxxxxxxxxxxx ~# free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 64266 17549 41592 66 5124 46151
Swap: 0 0 0
xxxxxxxxxxxxx ~#
and "egrep -c 'processor([[:space:]]+):.*' /proc/cpuinfo" giving 12 cpu cores.
Currently Cassandra-env.sh calculating MAX_HEAP_SIZE as '8GB' and HEAP_NEWSIZE
as '1200 MB'
I am facing Java insufficient memory issue and Cassandra service is getting
down.
I going to hard code the HEAP values in Cassandra-env.sh as below.
MAX_HEAP_SIZE="16G" (1/4 of total RAM)
HEAP_NEWSIZE="4G" (1/4 of MAX_HEAP_SIZE)
Is these values correct for my setup in production? Is there any disadvantages
doing this?
Please let me know if any of you people faced the same issue.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Bhargav M
