-----------------------------------
Summary: Memory Leak when repartitioning SchemaRDD from JSON
Key: SPARK-5075
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5075
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PySpark, Spark Core
Affects Versions: 1.2.0
Environment: spark-ec2 launched 10 node cluster of type c3.8xlarge
Reporter: Brad Willard
I'm trying to repartition a json dataset for better cpu optimization and save
in parquet format for better performance. The Json dataset is about 200gb
from pyspark.sql import SQLContext
sql_context = SQLContext(sc)
rdd = sql_context.jsonFile('s3c://some_path')
rdd = rdd.repartition(256)
rdd.saveAsParquetFile('hdfs://some_path')
In ganglia when the dataset first loads it's about 200G in memory which is
expected. However once it attempts the repartition, it balloons over 2.5x in
memory which is never returned making any subsequent operations fail from
memory errors.
