> When the Spark driver suffers an OutOfMemoryError while attempting to broadcast a table for a broadcast join, the resulting stack trace obscures the actual cause of the OOM. For e.g.:
> {noformat}
> [GC (Allocation Failure)  585453K->585453K(928768K), 0.0060025 secs]
> [Full GC (Allocation Failure)  585453K->582524K(928768K), 0.4019639 secs]
> java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
> Dumping heap to java_pid12446.hprof ...
> Heap dump file created [632701033 bytes in 1.016 secs]
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Not enough memory to build and broadcast the table to all worker nodes. As a workaround, you can either disable broadcast by setting spark.sql.autoBroadcastJoinThreshold to -1 or increase the spark driver memory by setting spark.driver.memory to a higher value

> {noformat}
> The above stack trace blames BroadcastExchangeExec. However, the given line is actually where the original OutOfMemoryError was caught and a new one was created and wrapped by a SparkException. The actual location where the OOM occurred was in LongToUnsafeRowMap#grow, at this line:
> {noformat}
> val newPage = new Array[Long](newNumWords.toInt)
> {noformat}
> Sometimes it is helpful to know the actual location from which an OOM is thrown. In the above case, the location indicated that Spark underestimated the size of a large-ish table and ran out of memory trying to load it into memory.
