Are you sure that your JSON file has the right format?

spark.read.json(...) expects a file where *each line is a json object*.

My wild guess is that

val hdf=spark.read.json("/user/tmp/hugedatafile")
hdf.show(2) or hdf.take(1) gives OOM

tries to fetch all the data into the driver. Can you reformat your input
file and try again?

Best,
Anastasios
