Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE updated HADOOP-5564:
-------------------------------------------
Component/s: build
Priority: Blocker (was: Major)
As Koji suggested, we probably should add -Xmx to limit the memory usage.
> hadoop command uses large JVM heap size

> Key: HADOOP-5564
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5564
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Reporter: Suresh Srinivas
> Assignee: Suresh Srinivas
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.20.0
>
>
> Command used to determine JAVA_PLATFORM in bin/hadoop command does not set
> the heap size. The command uses default 1GB heap size. The tasks invoking
> hadoop command end up using large heap size in streaming jobs. If the
> maximum memory that can be used by a task is restricted, this could result in
> map/reduce job failures.
