>
> This is to avoid an edge case when the memory available is very little (less
> than a single write buffer size), and we start loading the hash table. Since
> the write buffer is lazily allocated, we will easily run out of memory before
> even checking if we should spill any hash partition.
> e.g.
> Total memory available: 210 MB
> Size of ref array of BytesBytesMultiHashMap for each hash partition: ~16 MB
> Size of write buffer: 8 MB (lazy allocation)
> Number of hash partitions: 16
> Number of hash partitions created in memory: 13
> Number of hash partitions created on disk: 3
> Available memory left after HybridHashTableContainer initialization:
> 210-16*13=2MB
> Now let's say a row is to be loaded into a hash partition in memory, it will
> try to allocate an 8MB write buffer for it, but we only have 2MB, thus OOM.
> Solution is to perform the check for possible spilling earlier so we can
> spill partitions if memory is about to be full, to avoid OOM.
