Wenchen Fan commented on SPARK-12837:
-------------------------------------

[~Tagar] due to some implementation limitations, in Spark SQL we have to 
collect the whole broadcast dataset at driver side. Driver-free broadcast is on 
the roadmap, for now maybe you can set  `autoBroadcastJoinThreshold` lower.

> Spark driver requires large memory space for serialized results even there 
> are no data collected to the driver

> Executing a sql statement with a large number of partitions requires a high 
> memory space for the driver even there are no requests to collect data back 
> to the driver.
> Here are steps to re-produce the issue.
> 1. Start spark shell with a spark.driver.maxResultSize setting
> {code:java}
> bin/spark-shell --driver-memory=1g --conf spark.driver.maxResultSize=1m
> {code}
> 2. Execute the code 
> {code:java}
> case class Toto( a: Int, b: Int)
> val df = sc.parallelize( 1 to 1e6.toInt).map( i => Toto( i, i)).toDF
> sqlContext.setConf( "spark.sql.shuffle.partitions", "200" )
> df.groupBy("a").count().saveAsParquetFile( "toto1" ) // OK
> sqlContext.setConf( "spark.sql.shuffle.partitions", 1e3.toInt.toString )
> df.repartition(1e3.toInt).groupBy("a").count().repartition(1e3.toInt).saveAsParquetFile(
>  "toto2" ) // ERROR
> {code}
> The error message is 
> {code:java}
> Caused by: org.apache.spark.SparkException: Job aborted due to stage failure: 
> Total size of serialized results of 393 tasks (1025.9 KB) is bigger than 
> spark.driver.maxResultSize (1024.0 KB)
> {code}
