---------------------------------------
Hi [~jamestaylor],
When I want to run the SortMergeJoinIT, it will always start a mini local
cluster first and this stage is very time-consuming.
I want to know that is any way to run the integration test case in a given
deployed Phoenix without init a mini cluster.
I tried to find any config about that but failed.
Thanks.

> We currently use memory mapped files to buffer data as it's being sorted in
> an ORDER BY (see MappedByteBufferQueue). The following types of exceptions
> have been seen to occur:
> {code}
> Caused by: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Map failed
> at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.map0(Native Method)
> at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.map(FileChannelImpl.java:904)
> {code}
> [~apurtell] has read that memory mapped files are not cleaned up after very
> well in Java:
> {quote}
> "Map failed" means the JVM ran out of virtual address space. If you search
> around stack overflow for suggestions on what to do when your app (in this
> case Phoenix) encounters this issue when using mapped buffers, the answers
> tend toward manually cleaning up the mapped buffers or explicitly triggering
> a full GC. See
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8553158/prevent-outofmemory-when-using-java-nio-mappedbytebuffer
> for example. There are apparently long standing JVM/JRE problems with
> reclamation of mapped buffers. I think we may want to explore in Phoenix a
> different way to achieve what the current code is doing.
> {quote}
> Instead of using memory mapped files, we could use heap memory, or perhaps
> there are other mechanisms too.
