             Summary: Fixing MemoryEstimatorOracle
                 Key: GIRAPH-1150
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GIRAPH-1150
             Project: Giraph
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Hassan Eslami
            Assignee: Hassan Eslami


* Once the OOC is at OFFLAODING state, it may offload data to disk 
indefinitely. We should call GC manually and get OOC out of OFFLOADING if 
anything has changed in computation/communication pattern.
* Fixes a "if" statement which entirely disabled regression for memory 
estimation.
* Interleaving of in resetting and calculating memory estimation potentially 
can cause data race.
* The superstep count in memory estimator was not coherent throughout the 
calculation.
* Sometime the memory estimator's accuracy is not good. We should fall back to 
a threshold-based scheme relying on a more pessimistic memory usage report 
(such as the one given by JVM -- memory usage includes garbage data too, but it 
can be used as a pessimistic estimate, as it is currently used in 
ThresholdBasedOracle).

More tuning is needed for a smooth memory estimation mechanism.
