OOM Protection Using Automatic Query Killing

Pinot's built in heap usage monitoring and OOM protection

PreviousManaging LogsNextCommand-Line Interface (CLI)

Was this helpful?

Pinot has implemented a mechanism to monitor the total jvm heap size and per query memory allocation approximation for server (see ). If enabled, this mechanism can help to protect the servers and brokers from OOM caused by expensive queries (e.g. distinctcount + group by on high cardinality columns). Upon an immediate risk of heap depletion, this mechanism will kick in and kill from the most expensive query(s). Here are the configurations that can be commonly applied to server/broker:

Config
Default
Description

pinot.broker.instance.enableThreadAllocatedBytesMeasurement

pinot.server.instance.enableThreadAllocatedBytesMeasurement

false

Use true if one intend to enable this feature to kill queries by bytes allocated

pinot.server.instance.enableThreadCpuTimeMeasurement pinot.server.instance.enableThreadCpuTimeMeasurement

false

Use true if one intend to enable this feature to kill queries by cpu time

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.factory.name

DefaultThreadResourceUsageAccountant which only hardens timeout but no preemption

Use org.apache.pinot.core.accounting.PerQueryCPUMemAccountantFactoryIf one intend to enable this feature

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.enable.thread.memory.sampling

false

Account for threads' memory usage of a query, works only for hotspot jvm. If enabled, the killing decision will be based on memory allocated.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.enable.thread.cpu.sampling

false

Account for threads' cpu time of a query. If memory sampling is disabled/unavailable, the killing decision will be based on CPU time. If both are disabled, the framework will not able to pick the most expensive query.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.oom.enable.killing.query

false

Whether the framework will actually commit to kill queries. If disabled, only error message will be logged.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.publishing.jvm.heap.usage

false

Whether the framework periodically publishes the heap usage to Pinot metrics.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.oom.panic.heap.usage.ratio

0.99

When the heap usage exceeds this ratio, the frame work will kill all the queries. This can be set to be >1 to prevent a full killing from happening.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.oom.critical.heap.usage.ratio

0.96

When the heap usage exceeds this ratio, the frame work will kill the most expensive query.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.oom.alarming.heap.usage.ratio

0.75

When the heap usage exceeds this ratio, the framework will run more frequently to gather stats and prepare to kill queries timely.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.sleep.ms

30ms

The periodical task for query killing wakes up every 30ms

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.sleep.time.denominator

3 (corresponding to 10ms sleep time at alarming level heap usage)

When the heap usage exceeds this alarming level, the sleep time will be sleepTime/denominator

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.min.memory.footprint.to.kill.ratio

0.025

If a query allocates memory below this ratio of total heap size (Xmx) it will not be killed. This is to prevent aggressive killing when the heap memory is not mainly allocated for queries

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.gc.backoff.count

5

When the framework consecutively kills this many expensive queries it will explicitly trigger gc to reclaim the memory. Should consider use -XX:+ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent to avoid STW for some gc algorithms.

pinot.query.scheduler.accounting.oom.critical.heap.usage.ratio.delta.after.gc

0.15

if after gc the heap usage is still above this, kill the most expensive query use this to prevent heap size oscillation and repeatedly triggering gc
