Thejas M Nair updated PIG-1492:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: PIG-1492.1.patch

This patch updates the memory size calculations . This changes were made so 
that the estimated sizes are closer to what is seen in 32 bit Java HotSpot(TM) 
Server VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode). 

It is based on some of the observations in 
http://www.javamex.com/tutorials/memory/string_memory_usage.shtm .  The header 
sizes of objects has been taken to be 8 bytes. The objects size is rounded to 
multiple of 8 bytes. Some other adjustments for minimum size of array in a 
ArrayList were made based on observed size values.

The follow tables shows the tuple estimated sizes before/after the patch and 
what is actually observed, for the types whose calculation logic changed -

|| type || num of columns of this type in the tuple || before || patched || 
observed ||
| BYTEARRAY with 5 bytes| 10|254 | 504|495 |
| BYTEARRAY with 5 bytes| 1000| 21044| 44064|44127 |
| DOUBLE| 10|364 | 264|255 |
| DOUBLE| 1000|32044 | 20064| 20127 |
| LONG |10 | 284|264 |255 |
| LONG | 1000 | 24044 | 20064 | 20127 |




|| Tuple containing a single - || patched || observed ||
|  BAG with 10 empty tuples|524| 1092|1159 |
|  BAG with 1000 empty tuples| 48044| 100092| 100211|
|  map with 10 integer key-value pairs| 380| 824| 775|

>
> There are several places where we highly underestimate the memory footprint . 
> For example, for map datatypes, we don't account for the per entry cost for 
> the map container data structures. The estimated size of a tuple having map 
> with 100 integer key-value entries , as per current version of code is 3260 
> bytes, while what is observed is around 6775 bytes .  To verify the memory 
> footprint, i checked free memory before and after creating multiple instances 
> of the object , using code on the lines of 
> http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue029.html . 
> In PIG-1443 similar change was done to fix this for CHARARRAY .
