Aaron Kimball commented on MAPREDUCE-685:
-----------------------------------------

Added patch that fixes this issue. Also includes some other performance 
enhancements:

* MySQL now uses "LIMIT 1" when making SELECTs against tables for 
metadata-reading purposes.
* Transactions are no longer opened with TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE since it's 
unnecessary for metadata reads

No new tests for this included since Hadoop testing doesn't mesh well with 
MySQL. I tested locally by building a 1.7 GB table in mysql and reading into a 
local HDFS instance. This failed before applying the patch, and succeeds 
afterwards.

> Sqoop will fail with OutOfMemory on large tables using mysql

> The default MySQL JDBC client behavior is to buffer the entire ResultSet in 
> the client before allowing the user to use the ResultSet object. On large 
> SELECTs, this can cause OutOfMemory exceptions, even when the client intends 
> to close the ResultSet after reading only a few rows. The MySQL ConnManager 
> should configure its connection to use row-at-a-time delivery of results to 
> the client.
