--------------------------------------
[~trystan]
I'm sorry for your confusion.
As [~azagrebin] explained, `taskmanager.memory.process.size` is used for
deciding the size of containers to request, and deciding JVM parameters (e.g.,
-Xmx) and sizes of memory pools which are fully controlled by Flink (e.g.,
network buffer pool). Flink tries to control its memory usages with best
efforts, however, not all memory usages are controllable.
{quote}As a user I would like to be able to restrict a job to a certain known
amount of memory. You can do this with a regular JVM application, why not Flink?
{quote}
I think this is not very accurate. Generally for a java application, there are
three categories of memory types.
* JVM heap memory. This is memory virtualized by JVM, and can be controlled by
the parameter "-Xmx".
* Off-heap memory controlled by JVM. This is native OS memory which is outside
JVM heap, but its usage is still limited by JVM. This includes direct memory
and metaspace, with corresponding JVM parameters "-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize" and
"-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize" for limiting their sizes.
* Off-heap memory not controlled by JVM. This is native OS memory which is out
side JVM heap, and the usage is not limited by the JVM.
The third category cannot be restricted by the java application, unless we do
the bookkeeping for each memory allocation/deallocation. Flink do such
bookkeeping for its managed memory, but cannot do that for user codes /
libraries and JVM overhead (e.g., thread stack).

> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Runtime / Task
> Affects Versions: 1.10.0
> Reporter: ChangZhuo Chen (陳昌倬)
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: flink-conf_1.10.0.yaml, flink-conf_1.9.1.yaml,
> oomkilled_taskmanager.log

> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> This issue is from
> [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60336764/flink-uses-more-memory-than-taskmanager-memory-process-size-in-kubernetes]
> h1. Description
> * In Flink 1.10.0, we try to use `taskmanager.memory.process.size` to limit
> the resource used by taskmanager to ensure they are not killed by Kubernetes.
> However, we still get lots of taskmanager `OOMKilled`. The setup is in the
> following section.
> * The taskmanager log is in attachment [^oomkilled_taskmanager.log].
> h2. Kubernete
> * The Kubernetes setup is the same as described in
> [https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.10/ops/deployment/kubernetes.html].
> * The following is resource configuration for taskmanager deployment in
> Kubernetes:
> {{resources:}}
> {{ requests:}}
> {{ cpu: 1000m}}
> {{ memory: 4096Mi}}
> {{ limits:}}
> {{ cpu: 1000m}}
> {{ memory: 4096Mi}}
> h2. Flink Docker
> * The Flink docker is built by the following Docker file.
> {{FROM flink:1.10-scala_2.11}}
> RUN mkdir -p /opt/flink/plugins/s3 &&
> ln -s /opt/flink/opt/flink-s3-fs-presto-1.10.0.jar /opt/flink/plugins/s3/
> {{RUN ln -s /opt/flink/opt/flink-metrics-prometheus-1.10.0.jar
> /opt/flink/lib/}}
> h2. Flink Configuration
> * The following are all memory related configurations in `flink-conf.yaml`
> in 1.10.0:
> {{jobmanager.heap.size: 820m}}
> {{taskmanager.memory.jvm-metaspace.size: 128m}}
> {{taskmanager.memory.process.size: 4096m}}
> * We use RocksDB and we don't set `state.backend.rocksdb.memory.managed` in
> `flink-conf.yaml`.
> ** Use S3 as checkpoint storage.
> * The code uses DateStream API
> ** input/output are both Kafka.
> h2. Project Dependencies
> * The following is our dependencies.
> {{val flinkVersion = "1.10.0"}}{{libraryDependencies +=
> "com.squareup.okhttp3" % "okhttp" % "4.2.2"}}
> {{libraryDependencies += "com.typesafe" % "config" % "1.4.0"}}

> * The configuration we used in Flink 1.9.1 are the following. It does not
> have `OOMKilled`.
