To follow up with my last email, I have been looking into 
socket.receive.buffer.byte as well as socket.send.buffer.bytes. Would it help 
to increase the buffer for OOM issue?

All help is appreciated!

Thanks!

Subject: Out of memory - Java Heap space

Hey all,

I have a kafka cluster of 5 nodes that’s working really hard. CPU is around 40% 
idle daily.

I looked at the file descriptor note on this documentation page 
http://docs.confluent.io/1.0/kafka/deployment.html#file-descriptors-and-mmap 
and decided to give it a shot on one instance in the cluster just to see how it 
performed. I increased this number to 1048576.

I kept getting this error from the kafka logs:
ERROR [ReplicaFetcherThread--1-6], Error due to 
(kafka.server.ReplicaFetcherThread) java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

I increased heap to see if that would help and I kept seeing these errors. 
Could the file descriptor change have something related to this?
