Gopal V updated HIVE-20951: --------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > LLAP: Set Xms to 50% always > ---------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-20951 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20951 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: llap > Affects Versions: 3.1.1, 4.0.0 > Reporter: Gopal V > Assignee: Gopal V > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-20951.1.patch > > > The lack of GC pauses is killing LLAP containers whenever the significant > amount of memory is consumed by the off-heap structures which aren't cleaned > up automatically until the GC runs. > There's a java.nio.DirectByteBuffer.Deallocator which runs when the Direct > buffers are garbage collected, which actually does the cleanup of the > underlying off-heap buffers. > The lack of Garbage collection activity for several hours while responding to > queries triggers a build-up of these off-heap structures which end up forcing > YARN to kill the process instead. > It is better to hit a GC pause occasionally rather than to lose a node every > few hours. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
