Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli updated MAPREDUCE-5649:
-----------------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.7.2
Just pulled this into branch-2.7 (release 2.7.2) as it already exists in 2.6.1.
branch-2 patch applies cleanly. Ran compilation and TestMergeManager before the
push.
> Reduce cannot use more than 2G memory for the final merge

> In the org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.MergeManagerImpl.java file, in
> the finalMerge method:
> int maxInMemReduce = (int)Math.min(
> Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory() * maxRedPer, Integer.MAX_VALUE);
>
> This means no matter how much memory user has, reducer will not retain more
> than 2G data in memory before the reduce phase starts.
