Hudson commented on HADOOP-5564: -------------------------------- Integrated in Hadoop-trunk #790 (See [http://hudson.zones.apache.org/hudson/job/Hadoop-trunk/790/]) . Limit the JVM heap size in the java command for initializing JAVA_PLATFORM. (Suresh Srinivas via szetszwo) > hadoop command uses large JVM heap size > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5564 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5564 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Bug > Components: build > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > Assignee: Suresh Srinivas > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.20.0, 0.21.0 > > Attachments: 5564.patch, 5564.trunk.patch, 5564.trunk.patch > > > Command used to determine JAVA_PLATFORM in bin/hadoop command does not set > the heap size. The command uses default 1GB heap size. The tasks invoking > hadoop command end up using large heap size in streaming jobs. If the > maximum memory that can be used by a task is restricted, this could result in > map/reduce job failures. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
