Zheng Wang commented on HBASE-27805:
------------------------------------

Not sure if we should change the default chunk size to 2047k, any suggestions 
are welcomed.

> The chunk created by mslab may cause memory fragement and lead to fullgc

> The default size of chunk is 2m, when we use G1, if heapRegionSize equals 4m, 
> these chunks are allocated as humongous objects, exclusively allocating one 
> region, then the remaining 2m become memory fragement.
> Lots of memory fragement may lead to fullgc even if the percent of used heap 
> not high enough.
> I have tested to reduce the chunk size to 2047k(2m-1k, a bit lesser than half 
> of heapRegionSize), there was no repeat of the above.
> BTW, in g1, humongous objects are objects larger or equal the size of half a 
> region.
