--------------------------------------

             Summary: [1.11.0] maybe document jobmanager behavior change 
regarding -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize
                 Key: FLINK-18353
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18353
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Runtime / Configuration
    Affects Versions: 1.11.0
            Reporter: Steven Zhen Wu


I know FLIP-116 (Unified Memory Configuration for Job Managers) is introduced 
in 1.11. That does cause a small behavior change regarding 
`-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize`. Previously, jobmanager JVM args don't set 
`-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize`, which means JVM can use up to -`Xmx` size. Now 
`-XX:MaxDirectMemorySize` is always set to 
{{[jobmanager.memory.off-heap.size|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/ops/config.html#jobmanager-memory-off-heap-size]
 config (default 128 mb). }}

{{}}

{{It is possible to get "java.lang.OufOfMemoryError: Direct Buffer Memory" 
without tuning 
}}{{[jobmanager.memory.off-heap.size|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-master/ops/config.html#jobmanager-memory-off-heap-size]}}
 especially for high-parallelism jobs. Previously, no tuning needed.

 

Maybe we should point out the behavior change in the migration guide?
