Hi

I have a Centos 7 Jenkins agent. 'top' shows that Jenkins is running a Java process on it (as expected) but shows 22GB Virtual Memory allocated to that process. Seems very high, is that reasonable?

Best regards

David

Unless configured otherwise, the agent processes inherit the options from the controller, so this high VM may happen.

Check the advanced settings for the agent at least ssh agents allow custom JVM options there.

What would be a recommended setting?
