What is the relation between ‘mapreduce.map.memory.mb’ and ‘mapred.map.child.java.opts’ in Apache Hadoop YARN?
mapreduce.map.memory.mb is the upper memory limit that Hadoop allows to be allocated to a mapper, in megabytes. The default is 512. If this limit is exceeded, Hadoop will kill the mapper with an error like this: Container[pid=container_1406552545451_0009_01_000002,containerID=container_234132_0001_01_000001] is running beyond physical memory limits. Current usage: 569.1 MB of 512 MB physical memory used; 970.1 MB … Read more
