Paul Rogers reassigned IMPALA-7501: ----------------------------------- Assignee: Paul Rogers > Slim down metastore Partition objects in LocalCatalog cache > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: IMPALA-7501 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7501 > Project: IMPALA > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Paul Rogers > Priority: Minor > > I took a heap dump of an impalad running in LocalCatalog mode with a 2G limit > after running a production workload simulation for a couple hours. It had > 38.5M objects and 2.02GB heap (the vast majority of the heap is, as expected, > in the LocalCatalog cache). Of this total footprint, 1.78GB and 34.6M objects > are retained by 'Partition' objects. Drilling into those, 1.29GB and 33.6M > objects are retained by FieldSchema, which, as far as I remember, are ignored > on the partition level by the Impala planner. So, with a bit of slimming down > of these objects, we could make a huge dent in effective cache capacity given > a fixed budget. Reducing object count should also have the effect of improved > GC performance (old gen GC is more closely tied to object count than size) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-all-unsubscr...@impala.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-all-h...@impala.apache.org
