Sorry.. I completely missed the fact that it was 61GB for the System memory. 
(I’m used to seeing powers of 2)  O:-)

Paul’s suggestion should be sufficient in my opinion. If Zookeeper crashed.. 
that is most likely indicative of excess memory allocation to Drill with no 
spare on the system.

I’m still not sure why Drill consume so much memory in the first place.

You could add the following flags to the JVM options (drill-env.sh) to generate 
the GC Logs:
-XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -verbose:gc 
-Xloggc:/var/log/drill/gc.log

I also noticed that there were 2 queries in the system when the crash occurred, 
including an existing query ID without any reference to what the query was:  
25953c99-7e37-fc27-98d1-2cb87b038dfc

Could you share the details with the above flag and no other query running?

Thanks
Kunal

Thanks Paul,

I will update with your suggested memory allocations also and retry.

Zookeeper crashed too which might explain more? I have attached the logs from 
Zookeeper too.

Thanks

Hi Francis,

Thanks much for the log. The log shows running a query, then immediately shows 
entries that occur when starting Drill. I'm guessing that Drill literally 
crashed at this point? This is more severe than the usual error in which a 
query exhausts memory.

Some general observations. The Drill memory is 60 GB, but system memory is 61 
GB. Perhaps try dropping total Drill memory some to give the OS and other tasks 
more headroom. For a SELECT * memory, Drill needs far less than what you have, 
so maybe try giving Drill 48 GB total.

Then, Drill needs direct memory much more than heap. So, maybe give Drill 39 GB 
direct, 8 GB heap and 1 GB (the default) for code cache. These settings are in 
drill-env.sh.

Kunal, you have more experience with these issues. Can you make additional 
suggestions by looking at the log?

Thanks,

- Paul

Hi all,

I am guessing that each of your EMR nodes are quite large? EMR nodes are: 
r4.2xlarge ('vcpu': 8, 'memory': 61)

Property "planner.width.max_per_node" is set to = 6

What is the system memory and what are the allocations for heap and direct?
System Memory: 61GB (EMR nodes above)
drill_mem_heap: 12G
drill_mem_max: 48G

The view is simple: SELECT * FROM s3://myparquet.parquet (14GB)

planner.memory.max_query_memor y_per_node = 10479720202

Drillbit.log attached (I think I have the correct selection included).

Thanks

Can you share details in the logs from the crash?

Hi Francis,

I am guessing that each of your EMR nodes are quite large (32 or 64 vcpus). On 
large machines Drill's planner over parallelizes and over allocates memory. 
There is a property "planner.width.max_per_node" which limits the number of 
operators that can simultaneously execute on a Drillbit for a query. If you 
configure the width per node to something like 5 or 10 (you may have to play 
around with it) things should start working.

Thanks,
Tim

Subject: Creating a Tableau extracts with Drill 1.12 uses unlimited memory

Creating a creating a Tableau (with 10.3, 10.5 desktop) extract from a Drill 
(1.12 on EMR) cluster memory appears not to adhere to the limits set by 
planner.memory.max_query_memor y_per_node.

The extract query consumes all memory and then crashes drill.

Running the same query as a create table memory behaves as expected.

The query complexity is trivial:
select * from view only a single parquet with no calculated fields.

Has anyone else observed this behavior?
