--------------------------------------
I've seen a few people misled by the error msg, so I'd like to try to downgrade
that. I've created a separate ticket just for changing the msg, in case there
is some fix in store here.
> Spillable collections leak shuffle memory
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-11293
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11293
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1, 1.4.1, 1.5.1, 1.6.0, 1.6.1
> Reporter: Josh Rosen
> Assignee: Josh Rosen
> Priority: Critical
>
> I discovered multiple leaks of shuffle memory while working on my memory
> manager consolidation patch, which added the ability to do strict memory leak
> detection for the bookkeeping that used to be performed by the
> ShuffleMemoryManager. This uncovered a handful of places where tasks can
> acquire execution/shuffle memory but never release it, starving themselves of
> memory.
> Problems that I found:
> * {{ExternalSorter.stop()}} should release the sorter's shuffle/execution
> memory.
> * BlockStoreShuffleReader should call {{ExternalSorter.stop()}} using a
> {{CompletionIterator}}.
> * {{ExternalAppendOnlyMap}} exposes no equivalent of {{stop()}} for freeing
> its resources.
