NicoK commented on issue #7185: [FLINK-10884] [yarn/mesos]  adjust  container 
memory param  to set a safe margin from offheap memory
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/7185#issuecomment-447890879
 
 
   Let me drop some general notes: the `cutoff` was meant to include anything 
but the heap and thus cover for classes (metaspace), off-heap, etc. and when I 
touched this code, I kept that.
   If you look into 
https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-dist/src/main/flink-bin/bin/taskmanager.sh#L65,
 you'll also see that we practically set it to infinity there. Having an actual 
limit (as is used through `ContaineredTaskManagerParameters`) will only result 
in a different error in case you are hitting it: `java.lang.OutOfMemoryError` 
instead of being killed by YARN/Mesos/etc. That may be better for diagnosing it 
but doesn't solve the root cause of something using up too much memory.
   
   We also need to touch all memory calculations for 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10317 again - maybe splitting this 
off is already enough for you? So having `totalContainerMem = heap + offHeap + 
Metaspace`.
