Hi all, Is anybody here running Elasticsearch on Mesos & Marathon using Docker containers? I’m wondering how much memory should I allocate to Elasticsearch Marathon task that is the only task running on the host e.g. all available memory as reported by Mesos or some smaller amount to leave something for the system? Please note that I’m not asking about the heap size but about memory allocated to the Marathon task. Any suggestions?
