James Baker updated SPARK-21319:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
When we wish to sort within partitions, we produce an UnsafeExternalRowSorter. 
This contains an UnsafeExternalSorter, which contains the 
UnsafeExternalRowComparator.

The UnsafeExternalSorter adds a task completion listener which performs any 
additional required cleanup. The upshot of this is that we maintain a reference 
to the UnsafeExternalRowSorter.RowComparator until the end of the task.

The RowComparator looks like

{code:java}
  private static final class RowComparator extends RecordComparator {
    private final Ordering<InternalRow> ordering;
    private final int numFields;
    private final UnsafeRow row1;
    private final UnsafeRow row2;

    RowComparator(Ordering<InternalRow> ordering, int numFields) {
      this.numFields = numFields;
      this.row1 = new UnsafeRow(numFields);
      this.row2 = new UnsafeRow(numFields);
      this.ordering = ordering;
    }

    @Override
    public int compare(Object baseObj1, long baseOff1, Object baseObj2, long 
baseOff2) {
      // TODO: Why are the sizes -1?
      row1.pointTo(baseObj1, baseOff1, -1);
      row2.pointTo(baseObj2, baseOff2, -1);
      return ordering.compare(row1, row2);
    }
}
{code}

which means that this will contain references to the last baseObjs that were 
passed in, and without tracking them for purposes of memory allocation.

We have a job which sorts within partitions and then coalesces partitions - 
this has a tendency to OOM because of the references to old UnsafeRows that 
were used during the sorting.

Attached is a screenshot of a memory dump during a task - our JVM has two 
executor threads.

It can be seen that we have 2 references inside of row iterators, and 11 more 
which are only known in the task completion listener or as part of memory 
management.
