Input plugins append data independently, so in order to do an estimation, a limit should be imposed through the **Mem\_Buf\_Limit** option. If the limit was set to _10MB_ we need to estimate that in the worse case, the output plugin likely could use _20MB_.

Fluent Bit has an internal binary representation for the data being processed, but when this data reaches an output plugin, it will likely create its own representation in a new memory buffer for processing. The best examples are the [InfluxDB](https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit-docs/tree/b78cfe98123e74e165f2b6669229da009258f34e/output/influxdb.md) and [Elasticsearch](https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit-docs/tree/b78cfe98123e74e165f2b6669229da009258f34e/output/elasticsearch.md) output plugins, both need to convert the binary representation to their respective custom JSON formats before it can be sent to the backend servers.

So, if we impose a limit of _10MB_ for the input plugins and consider the worse case scenario of the output plugin consuming _20MB_ extra, as a minimum we need \(_30MB_ x 1.2\) = **36MB**.
