[FLINK-1291] Remove default GC options from the shell scripts
----
> Remove GC options from JobManager and TaskManager scripts
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-1291
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1291
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: other
> Affects Versions: 0.8-incubating
> Reporter: Stephan Ewen
> Fix For: 0.8-incubating
>
>
> Currently, the start scripts set a series of GC options
> - The Tenured Gen GC is set to ConcurrentMarkSweep
> - The Perm Gen is set to be collected during swipes (CMSClassUnloading)
> - The ratio between Perm Gen and New Gen is fixed
> I propose to remove all of those options:
> - Users can pass their own GC arguments through the JAVA_OPTS
> - CMS is not considered a competitive GC any more (starting from Java 7, G1
> seems much better)
> - PermGen garbage collection happens in all GCs anyways
> - The ratio between TenuredGen and New Gen has proven harmful in the past
