Summary: Implementations of BufferAllocator should handle Netty's OutOfDirectMemoryError Key: ARROW-1084 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1084 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Task Components: Java - Memory Reporter: Deneche A. Hakim Assignee: Deneche A. Hakim Priority: Minor Implementations of BufferAllocator.buffer(...) are expected to throw an OutOfMemoryException if the buffer cannot be allocated. There are multiple reasons for that: - allocator exceeded it's memory limit - Netty exceeded it's direct memory limit - the System is enable to fulfill Netty's request for more direct memory For now only the first case throws an OutOfMemoryException. The second throws an OutOfDirectMemoryError, and the third an OutOfMemoryError with the "Direct buffer memory" error message. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
