Andrew Or updated SPARK-1823:
-----------------------------

    Description: 
If the values for one key do not collectively fit into memory, then the map 
will still OOM when you merge the spilled contents back in.

This is a problem especially for PySpark, since we hash the keys (Python 
objects) before a shuffle, and there are only so many integers out there in the 
world, so there could potentially be many collisions.

  was:If the values for one key do not collectively fit into memory, then the 
map will still OOM when you merge the spilled contents back in.


> ExternalAppendOnlyMap can still OOM if one key is very large
