@guozhangwang That is a really good point. Maybe we should more be specific. What if each topology could request a percentage of the total cache? If a request made the total exceed 99% the request would be rejected. Any unclaimed cache would be split among the topologies that did not claim any. A topology could lower their cache size if they want to make space for a new topology. 1. If A requests 50% it gets it an the rest is unused 2. B joins but does not request so it gets the other 50 3. C joins but request 75% so it fails. C then requests 25% so now A has 50%, B 25% and C 25% 4. D joins without a request so now A has 50%, B 12%, C 25% and D 13% 5. A reduces its request to 25% now all have 25% 6. E joins and requests 0%, not using any cache and all other topologies are unchanged I think that should work. now we have both an upper bound on total memory and a minimum guarantee -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
