java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space while running kafka-consumer-perf-test.sh

[Check Peck]

I am trying to run kafka performance script on my linux box. Whenever I run
"kafka-consumer-perf-test.sh", I always get an error. In the same box, I am
running "kafka-producer-perf-test.sh" as well and that is not failing at
all. Looks like something is wrong with "kafka-consumer-perf-test.sh".

I am running Kafka version 0.10.1.0.

Command I ran:
./bin/kafka-consumer-perf-test.sh --zookeeper 110.27.14.10:2181 --messages
50 --topic test-topic --threads 1

Error I got:
    [2017-01-11 22:34:09,785] WARN [ConsumerFetcherThread-perf-
