Local rhel file system (/home dir) I think that changing the heap won't make any different in this case. I'd keep it to something like 8GB (unless you're doing very specific stuff that are memory consuming) and let the remaining to OS and disk caching. I think NiFi holds the snapshotmap in memory.. since we are dealing with pretty huge ingress data [I allocated 32GB out of 42GB to NiFi]. Hence, I increased so. Does this has anything to do with flowfile checkpoint delay?

In update step, I am doing some enrichment on ingress csv. Anyway my flow doesn’t do anything with the stop the world time right? Can you please tell me about flowfile checkpointing related tunings?

WorkFlow is GetSFTP -> update -> PutKafka. I want to tune my setup to achieve high throughput without much queuing. But my throughput average drops during flowfile checkpointing duration. I believe stop-the-world is happening during that time. I can roughly read ~100MB/s from SFTP and send almost same to Kafka. But every 2 mins, it stops the complete execution.

Please guide how to tune it.. I changed the heap memory with 32G [I am testing on 12 core, 48G machine]. I disabled content-repository archiving. All other properties remains same.
