[Scribeserver-users] Configuration options and memory usage

[Alex L. <al...@cl...>]

First off, thanks for contributing Scribe!  It's an awesome service, and we
already have it up and running to collect Hadoop log messages.
Can you provide a list of configuration options along with descriptions for
each?  The example configurations are not entirely self-explanatory.

Also, what's a typical Scribe server's memory usage?  A few of our nodes
just went down due to swap and memory being entirely used.  I blame this
insane memory usage on a bad configuration file, but I was hoping someone
else could comment on other possible reasons why Scribe would consume so
much memory?  I'm nearly 100% certain that no other process was consuming a
large amount of memory.

Thanks!

Alex
