Juhani Connolly commented on FLUME-1641:
----------------------------------------

This bug appears to still be around.

It also occurs in AvroSink when reconnecting(when using avro reconnect for load 
balancing). The fast discon-connect cycle very rarely appears to cause an OOM.

I suspect this https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/1393 may address it? If we 
wanted that, upping the version to > 4.0 would be necessary

Raising the memory limit also should fix it? Though that shouldn't be necessary.

Also as suggested, adding in a sleep before the reconnect. Though this may 
disturb throughput. Perhaps configurable?
