> In case of high frequency of updating table, memory consumption of
> kudu-tserver may be very high, and the memory in not tracked in the memory
> page.
> This is the memory usage of a tablet, the memory consumption of tablet-xxx‘s
> peak is 3.6G， but none of its' childrens' memory can reach.
> !image-2020-09-25-14-45-33-402.png!
> So I use pprof to get the heap sampling. The tserver started for long but the
> memory is still consuming by TabletBootstrap:PlayAlterSchemaRequest.

> I change the `old_schemas_` in tablet_metadata.h to a fixed size vector,
> // Previous values of 'schema_'.
> // These are currently kept alive forever, under the assumption that
> // a given tablet won't have thousands of "alter table" calls.
> // They are kept alive so that callers of schema() don't need to
> // worry about reference counting or locking.
> std::vector<Schema*> old_schemas_;
> The heap sampling then becomes

> So, to make application layer more flexible, it could be better to make the
> size of the old_schemas configurable.
