Hello Group-

I am running CDH zookeeper version 3.3.3+12.12 and noticed that zookeeper
is running with a heapsize of 6477m.

I start zookeeper standalone, via /etc/init.d/hadoop-zookeeper-server.  I
do not see reference to any ZOOKEEPER_HEAPIZE in the startup or zoo.cfg,
nor do I see any special JVMFLAGS in export/usr/bin/zookeeper-server, which
is what is called by the startup script, it just has this definition:

JVMFLAGS=-Dzookeeper.log.threshold=INFO

Can someone guide me to where the 6GB heapsize is being referenced?  This
seems a bit large of a heap.

Thanks for your guidance.

Sincerely,
Ed
