"Hash table has grown to 32768 entries". This is only a warning. but what should i do now to eliminate these warnings

Process data containing fewer distinct reference key values would be one way. Use more partitions would help too. Finding a different strategy, such as a sparse lookup or a Join or Merge stage might be another alternative.

As you note, it is only an alert. You could create a message handler to demote its severity from Warning to Informational.

In the director job log, right-mouse click on the message you wish to handle and one of the options is, if I recall correctly, "message handler" or something very similar. The documentation also details how to create and use message handlers.
