Brock Noland commented on FLUME-1860: ------------------------------------- Seems like we had an agreement on on setting the default to math.min(channel capacity, 10000)... This breaks many users so unless there is an objection I will submit a patch. > Remove transaction capacity from Memory and File channels > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLUME-1860 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1860 > Project: Flume > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Hari Shreedharan > > Transaction Capacity was primarily meant to be a memory safeguard. It ensures > that we don't have queues which are massive and can cause OOMs. I wonder if > there is a way of fixing this and making sure a malicious RpcClient cannot > cause OOMs by sending batches of huge sizes -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.4#6159)
