> The External Sort operator (batch) can spill to disk when it runs out of memory. To do so, it uses a class called {{BatchGroup}}. Later, when the sort merges spilled runs, {{BatchGroup}} reads the run back into memory one batch at a time.
> If an OOM error occurs during the read operation, the partially-read batches leak: they are not released. The fragment executor then issues a memory leak error while shutting down the query.
> This error has probably not been caught until now because the {{BatchGroup}} code does not make use of the fault injector. Elsewhere in the external sort, we use the fault injector to insert a (simulated) OOM exception so we can determine if clean-up occurs properly. No such fault injection code exists in {{BatchGroup}}.
