             Summary: Add holistic memory monitoring for SamzaContainer
                 Key: SAMZA-972
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-972
             Project: Samza
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jagadish
            Assignee: Jagadish


This feature introduces physical memory monitoring in SamzaContainer.

Context:
Often memory used by the SamzaContainer process includes 
A. JVM Heap memory: This is where all JVM variables live.
B. Native memory: This memory lives out of the JVM heap and is not visible to 
the JVM. Examples include used by RocksDb, native libraries that user code 
depends on etc.

User jobs could be killed by Yarn if their total memory (A+B) exceeds the 
configured maximum of yarn.container.memory.mb.

Currently, while our existing metrics provide visibility into [A] via JMX, we 
don't have visibility into [B]. (as it's totally external to the JVM).
