Hi John, Sounds to me you have a Flink standalone cluster deployed directly on physical hosts. If that is the case, use `t.m.flink.size` instead of `t.m.process.size`. The latter does not limit the overall memory consumption of the processes, and is only used for calculating how much non-JVM memory the process should leave in a containerized setup, which does no good in a non-containerized setup.
When running into a Metaspace OOM, the standard solution is to increase `t.m.jvm-metaspace.size`. If this is impractical due to the physical limitations, you may also try to decrease `taskmanager.numberOfTaskSlots`. If you have multiple jobs submitted to a shared Flink cluster, decreasing the number of slots in a task manager should also reduce the amount of classes loaded by the JVM, thus requiring less metaspace.
