Dave Latham commented on HBASE-9931: ------------------------------------ Yeah - it's in the scans. CopyTable doesn't use reducers at all. > Optional setBatch for CopyTable to copy large rows in batches > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-9931 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9931 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapreduce > Reporter: Dave Latham > > We've had CopyTable jobs fail because a small number of rows are wide enough > to not fit into memory. If we could specify the batch size for CopyTable > scans that shoud be able to break those large rows up into multiple > iterations to save the heap. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
