Siddharth Seth commented on HIVE-14887: --------------------------------------- Thanks for the review. Committing. In terms of #of HDFS nodes. Each node is launched as a thread within the same process (the process launched by maven to execute tests). That's currently 2GB, and I'll file a separate jira to reduce this after this one is committed. When moving this to 1GB - I didn't really see any failures related to HDFS itself. A 4 node MiniYARNCluster runs all 4 nodes as threads as well. However, the difference is that the containers that run on the NodeManagers launch as separate processes. Without this patch - we would run 4 NMs, with 4 1GB containers each - so each test could end up running with 16GB. Post the changes there's 2 NMs, with 4x128MB. So this gets way lower. > Reduce the memory requirements for tests > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-14887 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14887 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Siddharth Seth > Assignee: Siddharth Seth > Attachments: HIVE-14887.01.patch, HIVE-14887.02.patch, > HIVE-14887.03.patch, HIVE-14887.04.patch, HIVE-14887.05.patch, > HIVE-14887.06.patch > > > The clusters that we spin up end up requiring 16GB at times.
