Robert Joseph Evans commented on HDFS-3696: ------------------------------------------- Comment Thanks for the patch for branch-0.23. +1 (non-binding) for it. I reviewed the change and ran the tests. > Create files with WebHdfsFileSystem goes OOM when file size is big > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-3696 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3696 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Kihwal Lee > Assignee: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.23.3 > > Attachments: h3696_20120724.patch, h3696_20120724_0.23.patch, > h3696_20120724_b-1.patch > > > When doing "fs -put" to a WebHdfsFileSystem (webhdfs://), the FsShell goes > OOM if the file size is large. When I tested, 20MB files were fine, but 200MB > didn't work. > I also tried reading a large file by issuing "-cat" and piping to a slow sink > in order to force buffering. The read path didn't have this problem. The > memory consumption stayed the same regardless of progress. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
