Gopal V commented on TEZ-2085:
------------------------------
+1.
For reference, to trigger this needs a single key bigger than the sort buffer
to trigger it for all <2Gb cases.
> PipelinedSorter should bail out (on BufferOverflowException) instead of
> retrying continuously

> If we try to fit in a key/value pair which is great than the size that sort
> span can accommodate, PipelinedSorter would try to sort/spill indefinitely.
> This is more of a corner case. It should bail out gracefully and can throw
> back IOException instead.
