How to reduce memory usage per virtual server?

HBase: Region server heap used memory usage?

  • What's the usage of region server heap used memory ? I originally thought it's roughly the sum of current memstore + blockcache + storefileindex. But in our environment, I have configured max heap to 20g , heap used memory is sometimes up to 19g. At that moment, storefileindex was 8g, blockcache was 1g, memstore was 1g. What's the rest 9g memory ?
