>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5649
>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mrv2
>    Affects Versions: trunk
>            Reporter: stanley shi
>
> In the org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.task.reduce.MergeManagerImpl.java file, in the finalMerge method: 
>  int maxInMemReduce = (int)Math.min(
>         Runtime.getRuntime().maxMemory() * maxRedPer, Integer.MAX_VALUE);
>  
> This means no matter how much memory user has, reducer will not retain more than 2G data in memory before the reduce phase starts.
