      after enabling KAFKA in flowcollector, eBPF agent's memory usage is spiked to much higher level violating default limit:

      $ oc get pods -n netobserv-privileged
NAME                         READY   STATUS      RESTARTS        AGE
netobserv-ebpf-agent-5khzr   1/1     Running     1 (3m19s ago)   4m45s
netobserv-ebpf-agent-bzqrm   0/1     OOMKilled   4 (104s ago)    4m43s
netobserv-ebpf-agent-dpjct   1/1     Running     3 (36s ago)     4m48s
netobserv-ebpf-agent-jkg4f   1/1     Running     1 (4m29s ago)   4m40s
netobserv-ebpf-agent-sgdp6   1/1     Running     3 (49s ago)     4m42s
netobserv-ebpf-agent-vnjdb   1/1     Running     1 (86s ago)     4m47s

      Also, going back to DIRECT, restores previous memory usage levels, however sometimes I have had issues where only one eBPF agent comes up.
