Wenchen Fan commented on SPARK-21033:
-------------------------------------
[~clehene] I think you hit a different issue. By looking at the stacktrace,
seems your task failed because of running out of memory. There can be 2
possible reasons: 1) you have too many tasks running in one executor and the
executor doesn't have enough memory. 2) a memory leak bug in Spark. Feel free
to create a new ticket for it.

> Key: SPARK-21033
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21033
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Wenchen Fan
> Assignee: Wenchen Fan
> Fix For: 2.3.0

> In `UnsafeInMemorySorter`, one record may take 32 bytes: 1 `long` for
> pointer, 1 `long` for key-prefix, and another 2 `long`s as the temporary
> buffer for radix sort.
> In `UnsafeExternalSorter`, we set the
> `DEFAULT_NUM_ELEMENTS_FOR_SPILL_THRESHOLD` to be `1024 * 1024 * 1024 / 2`,
> and hoping the max size of point array to be 8 GB. However this is wrong,
> `1024 * 1024 * 1024 / 2 * 32` is actually 16 GB, and if we grow the point
> array before reach this limitation, we may hit the max-page-size error.
> Users may see exception like this on large dataset:
> {code}
> Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot allocate a page with
> more than 17179869176 bytes
