Hive ERROR: Out of memory due to hash maps used in map-side aggregation
当hive在执行大数据量的统计查询语句时,经常会出现下面OOM错误,具体错误提示如下:
Possible error: Out of memory due to hash maps used in map-side aggregation. Solution: Currently hive.map.aggr.hash.percentmemory is set to 0.5. Try setting it to a lower value. i.e 'set hive.map.aggr.hash.percentmemory = 0.25;'
查看task的失败信息为:
Error:GC overhead limit exceeded
对于这个错误,通常是由两种情况造成的:(1) hive sql写的不合理,导致执行时hash map过大;(2)hive sql没有优化的余地了(要得到想要的数据只能写这样的sql)。
对于(1)则改变sql语句,从而降低hash map的大小。对于(2)则可以调整参数。
下面分别说明(1)和(2)的情况:
(1)改变sql语句
select count(distinct v) from tbl; 可以改为select count(1) from (select v from tbl group by v) t;
说明:减少了hash map的key个数
select collect_set(messageDate)[0],count(*) from incidents_hive group by substr(messageDate,8,2); 可以改为select hourNum, count(1) from (select substr(messageDate,9,2) as hourNum from incidents_hive ) t group by hourNum;
说明:没有减少hash map的key个数,但是减少了value的大小
(2)调整参数
对于这个sql语句,是没办法进行优化(因为keywords的重复率很低,导致map阶段里面维护的一个内存Map对象非常巨大)来降低hash map大小的:
INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE hbase_table_poi_keywords_count SELECT concat(substr(key,0,8), svccode, keywords), substr(key,0,8), svccode, keywords, count(*) where substr(key,0,8)=\"$yesterday\" AND length(keywords)>0 AND svccode is not null GROUP BY substr(key,0,8),svccode,keywords;
与mapjoin和map aggregate相关的优化参数有:
hive.map.aggr
hive.groupby.mapaggr.checkinterval
hive.map.aggr.hash.min.reduction
hive.map.aggr.hash.percentmemory
hive.groupby.skewindata
以上参数可以查看配置文件说明即文档进行调整。如果需求确实没法通过调整这些参数来达到,那么set hive.map.aggr=false便是最终的方案,它肯定能满足你需求,只是执行速度比map join 和 map aggr慢些,但通过实际跑数据你很可能发现其实它也不慢哈。
