Lars Francke commented on SPARK-21501:
--------------------------------------
Just FYI for others stumbling across this: This has a bug in how the memory is
calculated and might use way more than the 100MB it intends to.
See SPARK-33206 for details.
> Spark shuffle index cache size should be memory based
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-21501
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21501
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Shuffle, Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: Thomas Graves
> Assignee: Sanket Reddy
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.3.0
>
>
> Right now the spark shuffle service has a cache for index files. It is based
> on a # of files cached (spark.shuffle.service.index.cache.entries). This can
> cause issues if people have a lot of reducers because the size of each entry
> can fluctuate based on the # of reducers.
> We saw an issues with a job that had 170000 reducers and it caused NM with
> spark shuffle service to use 700-800MB or memory in NM by itself.
> We should change this cache to be memory based and only allow a certain
> memory size used. When I say memory based I mean the cache should have a
> limit of say 100MB.
