> Hello,
> I am experimenting, trying to perform a DISTINCT on a medium sized set of URLs - about 3million (same set as I discussed previously - Utkarsh has a copy), this time in local execution mode.
> Pig script:
> {{
> A = LOAD 'all_13122007.txt';
> B = DISTINCT A;
> store B into 'bla;
> }}
> Bring these errors (two lines swapped in DefaultDatabag) to find real error.

> There are a two sub-issues here: 
> 1. Pig spills too much using a default JVM (64MB) size - expected?
> Perhaps pig.pl should set a default JVM size of more than 64MB?
> 2. the line DefaultDataBag.java:84
> {{{
> mSpillFiles.remove(mSpillFiles.size() - 1);
> }}}
> line should check that mSpillFiles.size() > 0,  because if File.createTempFile( ) in Databag.getSpillFile() fails, the mSpillFiles will not yet have been updated. My preference would be to split try{ } catch (IOException ioe) { } within DefaultDatabag.spill() into two exception handlers - one for getSpillFile() errors, and one for actual writing errors (when we know mSpillFiles has been added to).
> If this latter point isnt coherent, I can create patch.
> Ta muchly.
