Hi Reynold

Spark 1.6.x has serious bug related to shuffle functionality
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14560
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4452

Shuffle throws OOM on serious load. I've seen this error several times on
my heavy jobs

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Unable to acquire 75 bytes of memory, got 0
        at 
org.apache.spark.memory.MemoryConsumer.allocatePage(MemoryConsumer.java:120)
        at 
org.apache.spark.shuffle.sort.ShuffleExternalSorter.acquireNewPageIfNecessary(ShuffleExternalSorter.java:346)


It was fixed in both spark-2.0.0 and spark-1.6.x BUT spark-1.6 fix was NOT
merged - https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/13027

Is it possible to include the fix to spark-1.6.3?


Thank you
Alex
