If you notice that the instrumentation of highly async environments like RxJava and Netflix Hystrix results in high memory overhead issues, please follow the workaround outlined below:
1) Stop the agent.
2) Add the following configuration in <agent-install-dir>/ver.x.x.x/conf/app-agent-config.xml
under the <fork-config>
section.
<excludes filter-type="STARTSWITH" filter-value="rx.internal/,rx.schedulers/"/>
<excludes filter-type="STARTSWITH" filter-value="com.netflix.hystrix/"/>
3) Restart the agent.
