Error: Java heap space in reducer phase

问题

I am getting JAVA Heap space error in my reducer phase .I have used 41 reducer in my application and also Custom Partitioner class . Below is my reducer code that throws below error .

Here is my reducer code..

       public class MyReducer extends Reducer<NullWritable, Text, NullWritable, Text> {

    private Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(MyReducer.class);
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    private MultipleOutputs<NullWritable, Text> multipleOutputs;

    public void setup(Context context) {

        logger.info("Inside Reducer.");

        multipleOutputs = new MultipleOutputs<NullWritable, Text>(context);
    }

    @Override
    public void reduce(NullWritable Key, Iterable<Text> values, Context context)
            throws IOException, InterruptedException {

        for (Text value : values) {
            final String valueStr = value.toString();
            if (valueStr.contains("Japan")) {
                sb.append(valueStr.substring(0, valueStr.length() - 20));
            } else if (valueStr.contains("SelfSourcedPrivate")) {
                sb.append(valueStr.substring(0, valueStr.length() - 29));
            } else if (valueStr.contains("SelfSourcedPublic")) {
                sb.append(value.toString().substring(0, valueStr.length() - 29));
            } else if (valueStr.contains("ThirdPartyPrivate")) {
                sb.append(valueStr.substring(0, valueStr.length() - 25));
            }
        }
        multipleOutputs.write(NullWritable.get(), new Text(sb.toString()), "MyFileName");
    }

    public void cleanup(Context context) throws IOException, InterruptedException {
        multipleOutputs.close();
    }
}

Can you suggest any change that will solve my problem. If we use combiner class will it improve?

回答1:

Finally i manged to resolve it .

I just used multipleOutputs.write(NullWritable.get(), new Text(sb.toString()),strName);inside the for loop and that solved my problem .I have tested it with very huge data set 19 gb file and it worked fine for me . This is my final solution .Initially i thought it might create many objects but it is working fine for me .Map reduce is also getting competed very fast .

@Override
    public void reduce(NullWritable Key, Iterable<Text> values, Context context)
            throws IOException, InterruptedException {
        for (Text value : values) {

            final String valueStr = value.toString();
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            if (valueStr.contains("Japan")) {
                sb.append(valueStr.substring(0, valueStr.length() - 20));
            } else if (valueStr.contains("SelfSourcedPrivate")) {
                sb.append(valueStr.substring(0, valueStr.length() - 24));
            } else if (valueStr.contains("SelfSourcedPublic")) {
                sb.append(value.toString().substring(0, valueStr.length() - 25));
            } else if (valueStr.contains("ThirdPartyPrivate")) {
                sb.append(valueStr.substring(0, valueStr.length() - 25));
            }
            multipleOutputs.write(NullWritable.get(), new Text(sb.toString()),
                    strName);
        }
    }
