    Great video... Will dynamic partiton pruning work if both the datasets are partitioned on a column and same column is the joining key?? I have seen that in such cases, spark does a full shuffle , so was curious to understand why is spark behaves like this when both tables are partitioned on the joining key

    Hi Afaque, what if i found the size from Optimized plan :: catalyst_plan = df._jdf.queryExecution().optimizedPlan() df_size_in_bytes = catalyst_plan.stats().sizeInBytes() df_size_in_bytes_in_mb = df_size_in_bytes / (1024 * 1024) print(f"DataFrame size in MB: {df_size_in_bytes_in_mb}") -- will that be accurate replication?

    Thanks for the informative video. I have one major doubt: We are doing 25KB and 9KB of IO operation consecutively to use the bucketing and writing the data into tables. Spark is meant to use in memory processing. If we compare the duration of this bucketing IO operation with shuffling what will the cost and the execution time difference we'll get. Is it worth to use bucketing as it comprise IO operation.

Because whether I have 100 cores per executor in just one node or 5 cores per executor across 20 different nodes, if I want to read 1 TB of data from HDFS, it will read 1 TB itself right? How does 5 cores per executor keep throughput in place?

    Hi Afaque, can you please tell why GC increases in case of FAT Executors?

    • @afaqueahmad7117
      @afaqueahmad7117 6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Fat executors means more resources, more resources means more cores and ram. If several cores are running concurrently, the rate at which they're creating and destroying objects is quick, which means the heap is getting filled up quickly and in order to keep it usable it needs to be cleaned quickly too - hence GC would increase. Plus, with fat executors, the heap space is large, it ends up doing a larger heap scan to clear up unwanted objects which in turn pauses the job for longer than usual for the cleaning activity to complete. So it's ideal to have a sweet spot for both cores and memory. Hope this clarifies :)
