   I have a few questions of your plan @jayzhan211:
   
   1. What happens if the planner picks CollectLeft but the input can not be 
buffered in the available memory (will it still OOM)?
   2. What happens when one of the initial 16 radix / sub buckets in a 
partition doesn't fit in memory? Will that bucket be split too?
   3. The description mentions the fact that HashJoin today preserves probe 
side input order at the output. If we bucket the probe side to spill, we will 
lose the input order. Will the HashJoin recover the input order somehow (e.g. a 
resort) or just advertise it doesn't preserve the input order anymore?
   4. What will happen if one bucket gets very large, but the other buckets 
aren't out of memory yet (e.g. the case where there is one single key that has 
90% of the rows)?
   
   > I'll give it a try shortly to see if we can make the HJ implementation 
simpler first.
   
   I think this is  a great plan  @2010YOUY01 -- especially in this day and age 
when the bottleneck is our ability to understand the code that LLMs / coding 
tools generate, keeping the code simpler to review / understand I think is one 
of the most valuable endeavors
