----------------------------------

             Summary: Evaluate NiFi's default JVM GC args. Consider adding 
UseStringDeduplication
                 Key: NIFI-15091
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-15091
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Configuration
            Reporter: Kevin Doran
            Assignee: Kevin Doran


There was recently an [interesting 
discussion|https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/10372#issuecomment-3362326306] 
on the use of `-XX:+UseStringDeduplication` benefiting NiFi clusters that 
process many FlowFiles containing many FlowFile attributes, potentially with 
duplicate values.

At a glance, it seems that many NiFi use cases would benefit from enabling the 
`UseStringDeduplication` JVM GC arg, and there is probably little to no 
downside or risk to enabling it by default, even for use cases might not 
benefit. 

We should profile one or more representative flows in NiFi with and without 
this flag, quantify the potential savings, and, if merited, consider enabling 
this GC option by default in the JVM args of `bootstrap.conf` sourced by 
`nifi.sh`.
