We’re actually looking into off-heap memory usage of ignite now, specifically into the MaxDirectMemorySize needed.
So far it seems that MaxDirectMemorySize=256m should work. It may need to be larger if you use non-default walSegmentSize. Not limiting the direct memory size may result in excessive allocation, more work for garbage collector and even OOM. My early recommendation (note that the investigation is still in progress) would be to set the parameter to 256mb and increase it if you hit “OOME: direct memory”. We’ll have it published on readme.io when the testing is done.
