Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on HADOOP-9676:
-------------------------------------------------
[~cmccabe], can you please set the fix-version for this one? 2.1.0-beta?
(Haven't seen your other commits, but saying out just in case - we set
target-version pre-commit and fix-version at commit time.)

> Currently the RPC server just allocates however much memory the client asks
> for, without validating. It would be nice to make the maximum RPC buffer
> size configurable. This would prevent a rogue client from bringing down the
> NameNode (or other Hadoop daemon) with a few requests for 2 GB buffers. It
> would also make it easier to debug issues with super-large RPCs or malformed
> headers, since OOMs can be difficult for developers to reproduce.
