It won't control the cpu usage of Driver.
You should check out what CPUs are doing on your driver side. But I just want to make sure that you do know the full CPU usage on a 4 cores Linux box will be 400%. So 100% really just make one core busy. Driver does maintain the application web UI, and track all kinds of tasks statistics. So even if just a word count program, but if the source is huge, and generating thousands of tasks, then driver will be busy.

If it does, we have that property unchanged from its default value of "1" yet the same behaviour as before. -----Original Message----- From: Rohit Verma [mailto:rohit.ve...@rokittech.com] Sent: 01 March 2017 06:08 To: Phadnis, Varun <phad...@sky.optymyze.com> Cc: user@spark.apache.org Subject: Re: Spark driver CPU usage Use conf spark.task.cpus to control number of cpus to use in a task.
