Peter Bacsko commented on OOZIE-2736:
-------------------------------------
Patch results:
Before: 600-1000 threads
After: 420-500 threads
We could probably reduce it further, but it probably would not be proportional
to the effort.
> Reduce the number of threads during test execution

> Currently we have a lots of threads during test execution. On one hand, this
> is understandable because we start an entire YARN cluster with all the
> services inside a single JVM. Still, the number of threads can be reduced. By
> default, certain properties are not set which causes almost all thread pools
> to start with 50 threads, which is an unnecessarily high number.
> The problem is that every thread consumes memory even if it doesn't run
> anything, so on a re. A more noticeable downside is that retrieving a thread
> dump results in a large output from jstack.
