> I recently analyzed another Yarn NM heap dump with jxray ([www.jxray.com),|http://www.jxray.com),/] and found that 81% of memory is wasted by empty (all zeroes) byte[] arrays. Most of these arrays are referenced by {{org.apache.spark.network.util.ByteArrayWritableChannel.data}}, and these in turn come from {{spark.network.sasl.SaslEncryption$EncryptedMessage.byteChannel}}. Here is the full reference chain that leads to the problematic arrays:
> {code:java}
> 2,597,946K (64.1%): byte[]: 40583 / 100% of empty 2,597,946K (64.1%)
> ↖org.apache.spark.network.util.ByteArrayWritableChannel.data
> ↖org.apache.spark.network.sasl.SaslEncryption$EncryptedMessage.byteChannel
> ↖io.netty.channel.ChannelOutboundBuffer$Entry.msg
> ↖io.netty.channel.ChannelOutboundBuffer$Entry.{next}
> ↖io.netty.channel.ChannelOutboundBuffer.flushedEntry
> ↖io.netty.channel.socket.nio.NioSocketChannel$NioSocketChannelUnsafe.outboundBuffer
> ↖io.netty.channel.socket.nio.NioSocketChannel.unsafe
> ↖org.apache.spark.network.server.OneForOneStreamManager$StreamState.associatedChannel
> ↖{java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap}.values
> ↖org.apache.spark.network.server.OneForOneStreamManager.streams
> ↖org.apache.spark.network.shuffle.ExternalShuffleBlockHandler.streamManager
> ↖org.apache.spark.network.yarn.YarnShuffleService.blockHandler
> ↖Java Static org.apache.spark.network.yarn.YarnShuffleService.instance{code}
>  
> Checking the code of {{SaslEncryption$EncryptedMessage}}, I see that byteChannel is always initialized eagerly in the constructor:
> {code:java}
> this.byteChannel = new ByteArrayWritableChannel(maxOutboundBlockSize);{code}
> So I think to address the problem of empty byte[] arrays flooding the memory, we should initialize {{byteChannel}} lazily, upon the first use. As far as I can see, it's used only in one method, {{private void nextChunk()}}.
