I suggest you get a heap dump when the OOM occurs. See [this thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/exception-in-pipeline-worker-and-java-out-of-memory-errors/169916/2) for what to do with the dump. [This thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/split-document-into-multiple-document-based-on-condition/316737/9) shows what the report will look like.
