Github user walterddr commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5867 Hi @twalthr, having JVM heap size configurable is definitely a great benefit. Just to clarify, this is only changing the Client JVM heap size, correct? I am assuming this is mainly for manipulating large size data when retrieving results from the query. I think adding it to `flink-conf.yaml` should be fine. There are already specific configurations commented out for components like Kerberos, ZK, etc. which makes adding a specific conf to sql-client less disturbing. We can always break it out to another file later when extra configuration files are needed for sql-client in the future. What do you guys think?
