[jira] [Comment Edited] (SPARK-29321) Possible memory leak in Spark

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-29321?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16965428#comment-16965428 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------

[~srowen] I understand you comment and I fully agree that I don't have major GC and I also expect to have a small amount of memory usage all the time. I run the snippet code and I used VisualVM to profile the heap memory size. As you can see in the attached screenshot the heap size is increasing continuously. I can not understand why there is an increase trend in the heap size.

> This issue is a clone of the (SPARK-29055). After Spark version 2.3.3, I{color:#172b4d} observe that the JVM memory is increasing slightly overtime. This behavior also affects the application performance because when I run my real application in testing environment, after a while the persisted dataframes stop fitting into the executors memory and I have spill to disk.{color}

> *HOW TO REPRODUCE THIS BEHAVIOR:*
>  Reproduce the above behavior, by running the snippet code (I prefer to run without any sleeping delay) and track the JVM memory with top or htop command.
> {code:java}
> import time
> import os
> from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
> from pyspark.sql import functions as F
> from pyspark.sql import types as T
> target_dir = "..."
> spark=SparkSession.builder.appName("DataframeCount").getOrCreate()
> while True:
>     for f in os.listdir(target_dir):
>         df = spark.read.load(target_dir + f, format="csv")
>         print("Number of records: {0}".format(df.count()))
>         time.sleep(15){code}
>  
> *TESTED CASES WITH THE SAME BEHAVIOUR:*
>  * I tested with default settings (spark-defaults.conf)
>  * Add spark.cleaner.periodicGC.interval 1min (or less)
>  * {{Turn spark.cleaner.referenceTracking.blocking}}=false
>  * Run the application in cluster mode
>  * Increase/decrease the resources of the executors and driver
>  * I tested with extraJavaOptions in driver and executor -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=35 -XX:ConcGCThreads=12
>  * It is also tested with the Spark 2.4.4 (latest) and had the same behavior.
>   
> *DEPENDENCIES*
>  * Operation system: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
>  * Java: jdk1.8.0_131 (tested also with jdk1.8.0_221)
>  * Python: Python 2.7.12
