It depends. If the data size on which the calculation is to be done is very large than caching it with MEMORY_AND_DISK is useful. Even in this case MEMORY_AND_DISK is useful if the computation on the RDD is expensive. If the compution is very small than even for large data sets MEMORY_ONLY can be used. But if data size is small, than using MEMORY_ONLY is a obviously the best option.
