Hey Denny,
Please set XMX and XMS as the same (4GB here), because on high traffic
sinks it could be that the allocation process can cause a gc sweep.
Also I would recommend to define the gen sizes with:
-XX:NewSize=64m -XX:MaxNewSize=64m
cheers,
Alex

hi Alex,
Attachment is preparing for you!
Long term pause may be the critical problem for us. Do you agree me ?
Wish your response, thanks!

Hey Denny,
thanks for the report.
Can you please try to rerun with:
JAVA_OPTS="-Xms200m -Xmx200m -Xmn32m -XX:+UseParNewGC
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=70 -Xss128k
-XX:+UseMembar -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps
-Xloggc:/var/log/flume/gc.log"
Plese attach the gc.log after.
cheers,
Alex
