Hi All, I have a kafka cluster setup which has 2 topics
topic1 with 10 partitions topic2 with 1000 partitions. While, I am able to consume messages from topic1 just fine, I get following error from the topic2. There is a resolved issue here on the same thing https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-664 I am using latest kafka server version, and I have used kafka command line tools to consumer from the topics. >>>> [2015-01-19 22:08:10,758] ERROR OOME with size 201332748 (kafka.network.BoundedByteBufferReceive) java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space at java.nio.HeapByteBuffer.<init>(HeapByteBuffer.java:57) at java.nio.ByteBuffer.allocate(ByteBuffer.java:331) at kafka.network.BoundedByteBufferReceive.byteBufferAllocate(BoundedByteBufferReceive.scala:80) at kafka.network.BoundedByteBufferReceive.readFrom(BoundedByteBufferReceive.scala:63) at kafka.network.Receive$class.readCompletely(Transmission.scala:56) at kafka.network.BoundedByteBufferReceive.readCompletely(BoundedByteBufferReceive.scala:29) at kafka.network.BlockingChannel.receive(BlockingChannel.scala:100) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer.liftedTree1$1(SimpleConsumer.scala:81) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer.kafka$consumer$SimpleConsumer$$sendRequest(SimpleConsumer.scala:71) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer$$anonfun$fetch$1$$anonfun$apply$mcV$sp$1.apply$mcV$sp(SimpleConsumer.scala:109) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer$$anonfun$fetch$1$$anonfun$apply$mcV$sp$1.apply(SimpleConsumer.scala:109) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer$$anonfun$fetch$1$$anonfun$apply$mcV$sp$1.apply(SimpleConsumer.scala:109) at kafka.metrics.KafkaTimer.time(KafkaTimer.scala:33) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer$$anonfun$fetch$1.apply$mcV$sp(SimpleConsumer.scala:108) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer$$anonfun$fetch$1.apply(SimpleConsumer.scala:108) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer$$anonfun$fetch$1.apply(SimpleConsumer.scala:108) at kafka.metrics.KafkaTimer.time(KafkaTimer.scala:33) at kafka.consumer.SimpleConsumer.fetch(SimpleConsumer.scala:107) at kafka.server.AbstractFetcherThread.processFetchRequest(AbstractFetcherThread.scala:96) at kafka.server.AbstractFetcherThread.doWork(AbstractFetcherThread.scala:88) at kafka.utils.ShutdownableThread.run(ShutdownableThread.scala:51) <<< Thanks -Pranay
