Each reducer will ask for all 40 map outputs over a single socket in > a > single request (not necessarily all 40 at once, but with coalescing it is > likely to be a large number). > sendMapOutput() will open the file for random reading and then perform an > async transfer of the particular portion of this file(). This will > theoretically > happen 6000*40=240000 times which will run the NM out of file descriptors and > cause it to crash. > The algorithm should be refactored a little to not open the fds until they're > actually needed. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
