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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-12837 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12837 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Question > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 1.5.2, 1.6.0 > Reporter: Tien-Dung LE > Assignee: Wenchen Fan > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > > 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.
