-------------------------------------
Summary: Ability to specify the capacity of MemoryChannel in bytes
Key: FLUME-1535
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1535
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Channel
Affects Versions: v1.2.0
Reporter: Jayant Shekhar
Fix For: v1.3.0
Users should be able to specify the capacity of memory channel in bytes.
Currently users are able to specify the capacity in terms of max number of
events. This causes issues when the size of the events can vary significantly
(a couple of KB to MB) and could easily result in the Flume agent running into
OOM.
