ASF GitHub Bot commented on DRILL-7578: --------------------------------------- cgivre commented on issue #1978: DRILL-7578: HDF5 Metadata Queries Fail with Large Files URL: https://github.com/apache/drill/pull/1978#issuecomment-585272602 @vvysotskyi Thanks for your responses and feedback. Maybe it would help if you saw how this worked: ``` apache drill> select * 2..semicolon> from dfs.test.`dset.h5`; +-------+-----------+-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | path | data_type | file_name | int_data | +-------+-----------+-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | /dset | DATASET | dset.h5 | [[1,2,3,4,5,6],[7,8,9,10,11,12],[13,14,15,16,17,18],[19,20,21,22,23,24]] | +-------+-----------+-----------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ``` The column that is in question is the `int_data` column. What's happening is if that column is greater than 16MB, Drill runs out of memory. If a user is actually interested in analyzing that data, they should be using a data query which looks like this: ``` apache drill> SELECT * FROM table(dfs.test.`dset.h5` (type => 'hdf5', defaultPath => '/dset')); +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ | int_col_0 | int_col_1 | int_col_2 | int_col_3 | int_col_4 | int_col_5 | +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ 4 rows selected (0.172 seconds) ``` All that is happening in this PR is changing the default behavior in the metadata view. I set the default to `false` so that a user would explicitly have to enable this capability. If you're not liking this option, what would you suggest as an alternative. I don't think the current situation is ideal where Drill runs out of memory and crashes... ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
