                 Key: HADOOP-2751
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2751
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapred
    Affects Versions: 0.16.0
            Reporter: Arun C Murthy
            Assignee: Arun C Murthy
             Fix For: 0.17.0


I guess we should look to check why we get OOMs with 200M, I'd suspect 
io.sort.mb hogs a lot of the default 200M. However, HADOOP-1867 should be the 
right way to solve it. 

For now, I propose we bump up the child-vm default heapsize to 512M; too many 
people are getting burnt by 200M.
