Summary: possible memory leak in 0.8 beta1 producer with G1GC Key: KAFKA-1024 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1024 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.8 Environment: java version "1.7.0_17" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_17-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode) Reporter: Jason Toffaletti I have this in my pom.xml {noformat} <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> <artifactId>kafka_2.9.2</artifactId> <version>0.8.0-beta1</version> </dependency> {noformat} I'm using snappy compression codec and producing about 7k msg/sec on average. I'm producing batches up to 10 messages per batch with null keys to a topic with 16 partitions, no replication. Xms and Xmx are 64MB and I'm using XX:+UseG1GC. After about 12 hours of operation heap usage hits right up against the 64MB limit and the producer drops to about 4k msg/sec because of the GC pressure. When I restart the process the heap usage goes back to normal (around 30MB) and the producer does 7k msg/sec again. What else can I provide to help debug this? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
