JVM High Memory Usage - Min and Max Heap doesn't work

JimL · July 16, 2019, 9:05am

ES version: 7.1.1

I'd encountered a high memory consumption by JVM (roughly 2.5 GB) from Elastic Search and currently looking for a way to better control the memory consumption. (In case it goes up to very high)

Method to Adjust Min and Max Heap

I tried to follow the instruction of the above link to adjust the Min and Max Heap (to 1GB, for testing purposes) but didn't see any effect after I restart the machine.

Here is the screenshot I took.

Anyone knows why the setting didn't take effect? Did I miss any steps?
