> In recent versions of Spark the shuffle implementation is much more 
> aggressive about writing many files out to disk at once.  Most linux kernels 
> have a default limit in the number of open files per process, and Spark can 
> exhaust this limit.  The current hash-based shuffle implementation requires 
> as many files as the product of the map and reduce partition counts in a wide 
> dependency.
> In order to reduce the errors we're seeing on the user list, we should 
> determine a value that is considered "too low" for normal operations and log 
> a warning on executor startup when that value isn't met.
> 1. determine what ulimit is acceptable
> 2. log when that value isn't met
