             Summary: Combine failed on large PCollection of uint64 arrays
                 Key: BEAM-11916
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-11916
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: sdk-go
    Affects Versions: 2.28.0
         Environment: Google Dataflow
            Reporter: Tao Liao


We came across an issue with the Combine operation with Apache Beam Go SDK (v2.28.0), when running a pipeline on Google Cloud Dataflow. Source code: 

https://github.com/le0000000/dataflow_combine

We understand that the Go SDK is experimental but it would be great if someone can help us understand if there’s anything wrong with our code, or if there's a bug in the Go SDK or Dataflow. The issue only happens when running the pipeline with Google Dataflow, with some large data set. We are trying to combine a _PCollection<pairedVec>_, with

_type pairedVec struct {_

    _Vec1 [1048576]uint64_

    _Vec2 [1048576]uint64_

_}_

There are 10,000,000 items in the PCollection. After reading the input file, Dataflow scheduled 1000 workers to generate the PCollection, and started to do the combination. Then the worker number reduced to almost 1 and lasted for a very long time. Eventually the job failed with the following error log:

2021-03-02T06:13:40.438112597ZWorkflow failed. Causes: S09:CombinePerKey/CoGBK'1/Read+CombinePerKey/main.combineVecFn+CombinePerKey/main.combineVecFn/Extract+beam.dropKeyFn+main.flattenVecFn+textio.Write/beam.addFixedKeyFn+textio.Write/CoGBK/Write failed., The job failed because a work item has failed 4 times. Look in previous log entries for the cause of each one of the 4 failures. For more information, see https://cloud.google.com/dataflow/docs/guides/common-errors. The work item was attempted on these workers: go-job-1-1614659244459204-03012027-u5s6-harness-q8tx Root cause: The worker lost contact with the service., go-job-1-1614659244459204-03012027-u5s6-harness-44hk Root cause: The worker lost contact with the service., go-job-1-1614659244459204-03012027-u5s6-harness-05nm Root cause: The worker lost contact with the service., go-job-1-1614659244459204-03012027-u5s6-harness-l22w Root cause: The worker lost contact with the service.
