I tried running benchmarks from this PR but I am running into an error:

ExecutorLostFailure: The executor with id 21 exited with exit code 134(unexpected).

I also see this glib error in the executor log:

corrupted size vs. prev_size

@kazuyukitanimura. I can run the benchmarks now, but I did not see any difference in performance compared to the main branch. Are you still seeing a performance benefit after the recent changes?

[kazuyukitanimura]

Thank you @andygrove
That's odd. My local queries are showing clear improvement. Just checking, are you using iceberg? I haven't done the DSv2 yet. Right now, pure parquet with DSv1 gets the benefit of this PR
I will try to run more queries as well.

I see these results from 3 runs of q39 (both a+b) with 1TB input:

main: 59.3s/57.0s/57.1s
this PR: 58.2s/58.9s/57.9s

I am using these configs:

Thanks @andygrove
I tried with offHeap but I still see the advantage. Wondering if any of the following configs make difference. I use 100G input

spark.comet.regexp.allowIncompatible=true

[viirya]

I guess the diff is only observable on very small scale (ms). Once the query time is second/minute/hour level, the diff is insignificant.

[kazuyukitanimura]

Thank you @andygrove @viirya I addressed memory issues and added DSv2 support (except Iceberg). This is ready for review again.

I also run with 1TB by myself. I still see 10% ish speed up that is the order of seconds not ms. I think there are some environmental differences between @andygrove 's and mine.

[viirya]

It looks like less than 5%?

27979 - 27281 = 698 ~= 2%
24877 - 23534 = 1343 ~= 5%

So I believe that the diff is insignificant for longer query time.

[kazuyukitanimura]

Thanks @viirya

It looks like less than 5%?
27979 - 27281 = 698 ~= 2%
24877 - 23534 = 1343 ~= 5%

I used Ave Time (5 iterations) when I mentioned 10% ish
100G q39a (14413-13770)/14413 ~= 4.5%
1T q39a (33349-28714)/33349 ~= 14%
The performance gain can easily swing between 2%-15% due to the noise

So I believe that the diff is insignificant for longer query time.

The performance gain is proportional to the input size by design because it saves the overhead for all input arrow vectors.
If you mean longer query time by deeper query plan, then yes, the performance gain gets less effective as the benefit is one-time per data read and query procesing time takes more portions in the entire runtime.
But there are many use cases I think for shallow query plans as well and we can still save $$$?

[viirya]

1T q39a (33349-28714)/33349 ~= 14%

33349 obviously looks like it is affected by some noises.

q44 avg diff is also ~ 5%.

The performance gain is proportional to the input size by design because it saves the overhead for all input arrow vectors.

I mean it is less significant with longer query time. For queries running many minutes or hours, it has no difference.
If this is a trivial change, it will be good. But as I took a quick look, the change is not small and doesn't look like in good design to me.

I doubt that if it is worth.

[kazuyukitanimura]

@viirya Let me try to convince one more time.

For queries running many minutes or hours, it has no difference.

If the query time is long because the data size, this PR still helps (5% at least?). If the query time is long because the query itself is complex, this PR has less value.

the change is not small

The latest change is pretty small after following your change on Arrow spec memory model. There are only 3 main changes

1. avoid importing: common/src/main/java/org/apache/comet/parquet/ColumnReader.java
2. avoid exporting: common/src/main/scala/org/apache/comet/vector/NativeUtil.scala
3. type handling fix: native/core/src/execution/utils.rs

The rest of changes are only for passing the information of the new mode is used.

doesn't look like in good design to me.

Do you have any recommendations here? What if I add a feature flag to enable/disable this new code flow. The latest change is fully backward compatible. We can easily enable/disable with a single flag to manipulate hasNativeOperations boolean.
