How much memory it is eating up?

Posted on March 14, 2021

AS I successfully implemented the tutorial. Now it is taking 35 GB of memory out of 60 GB and in other instance, it is taking 90% of memory out of 16GB.

So is normal with everyone or there is an issue.

Hi there,

This is quite normal for Elasticsearch. IT will consume all of the available memory on your server.

In case that you don’t want to see that behavior, you could limit the JVM heap size. You can follow the steps on how to do that here:
