[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-6209) Implement a heuristic to auto-size Java heap of MRAppMaster container

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-6209?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14280062#comment-14280062 ]

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

[~jira.shegalov] Tez is doing similar approach: task memory * 0.8  is used to avoid OoM. It looks good to me. Do you have additional ideas?

> The size of Java heap required by the AM is linearly proportional to the size of the MR job (number of mappers/splits and reducers). it would be nice if users did not have to adjust the AM container size when transitioning from testing job on a small sample to a production job on a full-scale dataset.
