Github user vanzin commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16603 > what is reported by a consumer as used need not match what it releases as freed Right, but if even the sum of the reported used memory is not enough for the new consumer, spilling existing consumers is just causing harm. You can just report there's not enough memory without spilling anything. But it's fine to leave that for a separate discussion, since I believe that's how the current code behaves anyway.
