Eric Newton updated ACCUMULO-1770:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
On a large cluster it was noticed that a few of the tablet servers had been 
pushed into swap.  This didn't effect the performance of the server until it 
ran out of memory, and the process was killed.  The gc reports in the debug log 
showed the system had plenty of heap space for the JVM.  The number of threads 
in the server were not excessive (dozens).  This cluster ingests some large 
values (megabytes).  The tablet server had been up for a month prior to running 
out of memory.  MALLOC_ARENA_MAX had already been set to 1.

* Investigate the effect of fragmentation on memory usage for large value 
inserts.
