> Reducer can OOM during shuffle because on-disk output stream not released

> Key: MAPREDUCE-5168
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5168
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mrv2
> Affects Versions: 0.23.7, 2.0.5-beta
> Reporter: Jason Lowe

> If a reducer needs to shuffle a map output to disk, it opens an output stream
> and writes the data to disk. However it does not release the reference to
> the output stream within the MapOutput, and the output stream can have a 128K
> buffer attached to it. If enough of these on-disk outputs are queued up
> waiting to be merged, it can cause the reducer to OOM during the shuffle
> phase. In one case I saw there were 1200 on-disk outputs queued up to be
> merged, leading to an extra 150MB of pressure on the heap due to the output
> stream buffers that were no longer necessary.
