---------------------------------
Summary: Spark master OOMs with exception stack trace stored in
JobProgressListener
Key: SPARK-4906
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4906
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1.1
Reporter: Mingyu Kim
Spark master was OOMing with a lot of stack traces retained in
JobProgressListener. The object dependency goes like the following.
JobProgressListener.stageIdToData => StageUIData.taskData =>
TaskUIData.errorMessage
Each error message is ~10kb since it has the entire stack trace. As we have a
lot of tasks, when all of the tasks across multiple stages go bad, these error
messages accounted for 0.5GB of heap at some point.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like all the task info for running
applications are kept in memory, which means it's almost always bound to OOM
for long-running applications. Would it make sense to fix this, for example, by
spilling some UI states to disk?
