> > Problem > > I tried one query and this PR is not working as expected, I specified one query to run under 5GB memory (select * without order requires 7GB) but it's still consuming around 10GB, could you double check? I suspect we missed some details. > > It is a problem of datafusion-cli. If datafusion-cli decides to hold all the result batches in memory, it should create a memory consumer for itself and reserve memory for the result batches. > > datafusion-cli [calls collect](https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/45.0.0/datafusion-cli/src/exec.rs#L249-L254) to hold the entire result set in memory before displaying it, this is unnecessary when maxrows is not unlimited. I've tried the following code to replace the collect call, and the maximum resident set size has reduced to 4.8 GB: This is also another great observation that it would be great to get captured in a ticket -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
