Chris Douglas updated MAPREDUCE-4882: ------------------------------------- Resolution: Duplicate Fix Version/s: 2.6.0 Target Version/s: (was: ) Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) Fixed in MAPREDUCE-6063. Sorry Jerry; didn't see this. > Error in estimating the length of the output file in Spill Phase > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4882 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4882 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.20.2, 1.0.3 > Environment: Any Environment > Reporter: Lijie Xu > Assignee: Jerry Chen > Labels: BB2015-05-TBR, patch > Fix For: 2.6.0 > > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-4882.patch > > Original Estimate: 1h > Remaining Estimate: 1h > > The sortAndSpill() method in MapTask.java has an error in estimating the > length of the output file. > The "long size" should be "(bufvoid - bufstart) + bufend" not "(bufvoid - > bufend) + bufstart" when "bufend < bufstart". > Here is the original code in MapTask.java. > private void sortAndSpill() throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException, > InterruptedException { > //approximate the length of the output file to be the length of the > //buffer + header lengths for the partitions > long size = (bufend >= bufstart > ? bufend - bufstart > : (bufvoid - bufend) + bufstart) + > partitions * APPROX_HEADER_LENGTH; > FSDataOutputStream out = null; > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > I had a test on "TeraSort". A snippet from mapper's log is as follows: > MapTask: Spilling map output: record full = true > MapTask: bufstart = 157286200; bufend = 10485460; bufvoid = 199229440 > MapTask: kvstart = 262142; kvend = 131069; length = 655360 > MapTask: Finished spill 3 > In this occasioin, Spill Bytes should be (199229440 - 157286200) + 10485460 = > 52428700 (52 MB) because the number of spilled records is 524287 and each > record costs 100B. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
