Description

NodeManager heap size is 4G, io.netty.channel.ChannelOutboundBuffer$Entry occupied about 2.8G by looking at Histogram of Mat, and those Entries were hold by ChannelOutboundBuffer by looking at dominator_tree of mat. By analyzing  one fo ChannelOutboundBuffer object, I found there were 248867 entries in the object of ChannelOutboundBuffer (ChannelOutboundBuffer#flushed=248867), and  ChannelOutboundBuffer#totalPengdingSize=23891232 which is more than highwaterMark(64K), and unwritable=1 meaning sending buffer was full.  But ChannelHandler seems not check unwritable flag when write message, and finally NodeManager occurs OOM.
