NeophyteFinally I had a chance to look into our Collector sizing and the SSE indeed appears to be not starting on _most_ of our Collectors! You are exactly right!
The odd thing (which I'm still investigating) is that the vast majority of our Collectors are 16GB memory, but deliberately set to "only" Large. I guess we can theorize that more than 4GB is being taken by the OS and other non-Collector components, because otherwise the 4GB SSE would be able to start in addition to the 8GB JVM.
A side note about that doc https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/collectors/collector-overview/collector-capacity The table lists Large Collector SSE Memory Requirements as 2GiB but the text (as you quoted above) says "the SSE requires half of the amount of memory allotted to the JVM". Those seem to be in disagreement. Shouldn't the table list 4GiB for a Large which is 8GiB for JVM? It seems like the values in the table are all half what they should be.
Again no reply needed. This is all just in case it's helpful / useful.
