First, you have to find out where the memory is going. So, you can use the
mbeans in jconsole or something like that. You'll have to look at different
caches and offheap in cache and metrics types. Once you've figured that
out, then you can start working on tuning things. Yes, your heap is 32G,
add about 2G for jvm classes, and other jvm stuff. Then chunk cache,
counter cache, key cache, bloom filters, and whatever else and voila the
heap is gone.
