Gyula Fora created FLINK-1368: --------------------------------- Summary: Change memory management settings for Streaming programs Key: FLINK-1368 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1368 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Streaming Affects Versions: 0.9 Reporter: Gyula Fora
Currently streaming programs use the same memory management settings as a batch api by reserving a large share of the heap for the runtime, while not making any use of it. This should be disabled until the streaming runtime is reworked so it makes a good use of this reserved space. One part where this could be most relevant is windowing operators where a large time window could easily cause memory problems with the current implementation. For windowing disk spilling should be implemented to increase robustness. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
