[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JGRP-1238) STABLE: determine best value for max_bytes

STABLE: determine best value for max_bytes ------------------------------------------ Key: JGRP-1238 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1238 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 2.12 max_bytes should be determined as a function of the available memory, a max value that cannot be exceeded and the number of nodes in the cluster. If we have more cluster nodes, and everyone sends messages, then *not* changing max_value would lead to too many STABLE messages being sent ! An example could be: max_bytes="1m" cap="0.25" // 25% of the available heap If we have 5 nodes in the cluster, max_bytes would be set to 5m. With a heap of 100MiB, if we have 30 nodes, max_bytes would be set to max(30Mib, 0.25 * 100 Mib) == 25 MiB.
