Re: Save a spark RDD to disk

Can you increase the number of partitions and also increase the number of executors? (This should improve the parallelization but you may become disk i/o bound) On Nov 8, 2016, at 4:08 PM, Elf Of Lothlorein > wrote: Hi I am trying to save a RDD

Re: Save a spark RDD to disk

Thats around 750MB/s which seems quite respectable even in this day and age! How many and what kind of disks to you have attached to your nodes? What are you expecting? On Tue, Nov 8, 2016 at 11:08 PM, Elf Of Lothlorein wrote: > Hi > I am trying to save a RDD to disk and

Save a spark RDD to disk

Hi I am trying to save a RDD to disk and I am using the saveAsNewAPIHadoopFile for that. I am seeing that it takes almost 20 mins for about 900 GB of data. Is there any parameter that I can tune to make this saving faster. I am running about 45 executors with 5 cores each on 5 Spark worker nodes
