[jira] [Created] (DRILL-5755) TOP_N_SORT operator does not free memory while running

Boaz Ben-Zvi created DRILL-5755:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: TOP_N_SORT operator does not free memory while running
                 Key: DRILL-5755
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5755
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Execution - Relational Operators
    Affects Versions: 1.11.0
            Reporter: Boaz Ben-Zvi


 The TOP_N_SORT operator should keep the top N rows while processing its input, and free the memory used to hold all rows below the top N.

For example, the following query uses a table with 125M rows:
{code}
select row_count, sum(row_count), avg(double_field), max(double_rand), count(float_rand) from dfs.`/data/tmp` group by row_count order by row_count limit 30;
{code}

And failed with an OOM when each of the 3 TOP_N_SORT operators was holding about 2.44 GB !! (see attached profile).  It should take far less memory to hold 30 rows !!
