[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-2075) Flume agents should be able to have
custom max heap sizes set
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2075?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13678459#comment-13678459 ]
Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-2075:
-----------------------------------------
[~ejsarge] This can already be done by setting JAVA_OPTS in flume-env.sh, so I don't really think it is necessary to pass this in via command line separately. Is there a reason the flume-env.sh option does not fit your use-case?

> Flume's default max heap size is 20MB. I have seen situations which make me believe that this is too small in some applications. However there is no way to override it short of editing bin/flume-ng.
> With this patch, the max heap size can be set with -Xmx just as if it a JVM.
