Sandy Ryza updated SPARK-3682:
------------------------------
Target Version/s: 1.3.0 (was: 1.2.0)
> Add helpful warnings to the UI
> ------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-3682
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3682
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Web UI
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Sandy Ryza
>
> Spark has a zillion configuration options and a zillion different things that
> can go wrong with a job. Improvements like incremental and better metrics
> and the proposed spark replay debugger provide more insight into what's going
> on under the covers. However, it's difficult for non-advanced users to
> synthesize this information and understand where to direct their attention.
> It would be helpful to have some sort of central location on the UI users
> could go to that would provide indications about why an app/job is failing or
> performing poorly.
> Some helpful messages that we could provide:
> * Warn that the tasks in a particular stage are spending a long time in GC.
> * Warn that spark.shuffle.memoryFraction does not fit inside the young
> generation.
> * Warn that tasks in a particular stage are very short, and that the number
> of partitions should probably be decreased.
> * Warn that tasks in a particular stage are spilling a lot, and that the
> number of partitions should probably be decreased.
> * Warn that a cached RDD that gets a lot of use does not fit in memory, and a
> lot of time is being spent recomputing it.
> To start, probably two kinds of warnings would be most helpful.
> * Warnings at the app level that report on misconfigurations, issues with the
> general health of executors.
> * Warnings at the job level that indicate why a job might be performing
> slowly.
