Otis Gospodnetic commented on FLUME-2197:
-----------------------------------------
Thanks for the graphs, Roshan.
bq. Spill Channel contains a modified implementation of mem channel and
addresses this GC issue and some other locking issues.
I don't get why you said this when the graphs for both mem and spillable
channel look very similar and show the same "flat after ~6 minutrs" pattern?
> Memory Channel has GC issues
