You want to optimize a Hadoop cluster with 64 GB RAM per node. If each container requires 4 GB memory and 2 GB heap size, how many containers can run simultaneously without exceeding heap limits?
A16 containers
B32 containers
C8 containers
D12 containers
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Calculate max containers by total memory

    64 GB total / 4 GB per container = 16 containers max by memory.
  2. Step 2: Check heap size per container

    Heap size 2 GB fits within 4 GB container memory, so no heap limit issue.
  3. Final Answer:

    16 containers -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    Containers limited by container memory, heap fits inside [OK]
Quick Trick: Containers = total RAM / container memory if heap fits [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Dividing total RAM by heap size instead of container memory
  • Ignoring heap size fitting inside container memory
  • Choosing more containers than memory allows
