> Spark has a zillion configuration options and a zillion different things that 
> can go wrong with a job.  Improvements like incremental and better metrics 
> and the proposed spark replay debugger provide more insight into what's going 
> on under the covers.  However, it's difficult for non-advanced users to 
> synthesize this information and understand where to direct their attention. 
> It would be helpful to have some sort of central location on the UI users 
> could go to that would provide indications about why an app/job is failing or 
> performing poorly.
> Some helpful messages that we could provide:
> * Warn that the tasks in a particular stage are spending a long time in GC.
> * Warn that spark.shuffle.memoryFraction does not fit inside the young 
> generation.
> * Warn that tasks in a particular stage are very short, and that the number 
> of partitions should probably be decreased.
> * Warn that tasks in a particular stage are spilling a lot, and that the 
> number of partitions should probably be increased.
> * Warn that a cached RDD that gets a lot of use does not fit in memory, and a 
> lot of time is being spent recomputing it.
> To start, probably two kinds of warnings would be most helpful.
> * Warnings at the app level that report on misconfigurations, issues with the 
> general health of executors.
> * Warnings at the job level that indicate why a job might be performing 
> slowly.
