Hi everyone,

I apologize in advance if that is not the right mailing list for my question. 
If there is a better place for it, please let me know.

Basically, I wanted to ask if you have some statement about the hardware 
requirements of Flink to process larger amounts of data beginning from, say, 20 
GBs. Currently, I am facing issues in my jobs, e.g., there are not enough 
buffers for safe execution of some operations. Since the machines that run my 
TaskTrackers have unfortunately very limited main memory, I cannot increase the 
number of buffers (and heap space in general) too much. Currently, I assigned 
them 1.5 GB.

So, the exact questions are:

*         Do you have experiences with a suitable HW setup for crunching larger 
amounts of data, maybe from the TU cluster?

*         Are there any configuration tips, you can provide, e.g. pertaining to 
the buffer configuration?

*         Are there any general statements on the growth of Flink's memory 
requirements wrt. to the size of the input data?

Thanks for your help!
Sebastian
