>> One of my testing nodes caught the OOM kill for the VM carrying the test. The default configuration turns the VM that test runs as the driver into a memory hog. On 48-core / 64G machine, the test configured itself to take 13 workers each allocating 1G. This ballooned the heap size to 13G -- e.g. about 25% of host memory  -- which is well beyond the usual footprint for a single test VM (~2GB). Naturally, this runs into a high chance of being OOM killed under high test parallelism.
