Puppet failure on deployment-kafka-jumbo-3.deployment-prep.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

During puppet agent -t there are several instances of this error:

Cannot allocate memory - fork(2)

The machine has ~2GB RAM and no swap. Most of the memory is used by the two kafka processes (totaling ~1.5GB RSS). Looking at 'dmesg' I can see the oom-killer has been invoked several times.

How much RAM do the production kafka servers have?
