Sahil Takiar commented on HIVE-19937: ------------------------------------- Thanks Misha, yes I will keep this in mind. I don't think this part of the code is CPU bound, so it shouldn't be an issue. > Intern fields in MapWork on deserialization > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-19937 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19937 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Spark > Reporter: Sahil Takiar > Assignee: Sahil Takiar > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-19937.1.patch, HIVE-19937.2.patch, > HIVE-19937.3.patch, HIVE-19937.4.patch, HIVE-19937.5.patch, > post-patch-report.html, report.html > > > When fixing HIVE-16395, we decided that each new Spark task should clone the > {{JobConf}} object to prevent any {{ConcurrentModificationException}} from > being thrown. However, setting this variable comes at a cost of storing a > duplicate {{JobConf}} object for each Spark task. These objects can take up a > significant amount of memory, we should intern them so that Spark tasks > running in the same JVM don't store duplicate copies. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
