Thomas Graves commented on SPARK-21501:
---------------------------------------

The issue was actually introduced with SPARK-15074.  Updated the affects 
version. I was thinking that was added earlier so thanks for pointing out.

That cache should be memory based not # of entries based.

> Spark shuffle index cache size should be memory based

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21501
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Shuffle
>    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
>            Reporter: Thomas Graves
>
> Right now the spark shuffle service has a cache for index files. It is based 
> on a # of files cached (spark.shuffle.service.index.cache.entries). This can 
> cause issues if people have a lot of reducers because the size of each entry 
> can fluctuate based on the # of reducers. 
> We saw an issues with a job that had 170000 reducers and it caused NM with 
> spark shuffle service to use 700-800MB or memory in NM by itself.
> We should change this cache to be memory based and only allow a certain 
> memory size used. When I say memory based I mean the cache should have a 
> limit of say 100MB.
