Hyukjin Kwon created SPARK-14260: ------------------------------------ Summary: Increase default value for maxCharsPerColumn Key: SPARK-14260 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14260 Project: Spark Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Hyukjin Kwon Priority: Trivial
I guess the default value of the option {{maxCharsPerColumn}} looks relatively small,1000000 characters meaning 976KB. It looks some of guys have a problem with this ending up setting the value manually. https://github.com/databricks/spark-csv/issues/295 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14103 According to [univocity API|http://docs.univocity.com/parsers/2.0.0/com/univocity/parsers/common/CommonSettings.html#setMaxCharsPerColumn(int)], this exists to avoid {{OutOfMemoryErrors}}. If this does not harm performance, then I think it would be better to make the default value much bigger (eg. 10MB or 100MB) so that users do not take care of the lengths of each field in CSV file. Apparently Apache CSV Parser does not have such limits. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
