Moving to mapreduce-user@, bcc: common-user
Have you tried bumping up the heap for the map task?
Since you are setting io.sort.mb to 256M, pls set heap-size to 512M at
least, if not more.
mapred.child.java.opts -> -Xmx512M or -Xmx1024m

Dear All,
I am running a hadoop job processing data. The output of map is really
large, and it spill 15 times. So I was trying to set io.sort.mb = 256
instead of 100. And I leave everything else default. I am using 0.20.2
version. And when I run the job, I got the following errors:

I can't figure out why, could anyone please give me a hint? Any hlep
