Devaraj Das resolved HADOOP-875. -------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Improved this as part of HADOOP-1698. > memory model is not accurate enough for map side sorts > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-875 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-875 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.10.0 > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Devaraj Das > > I configured a sort (IdentityMapper) with large compressed values with the > map output buffer (io.sort.mb) set to 300mb and the child jvm heap size set > to 900mb and some of the maps were running out of memory deterministically. I > suspect that some part of the data path is not handling large values well and > is consuming large amounts of ram. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
