Hi Ravi

Thank you bringing this improvement discussion to mailing list.

One question , the point1 how to solve the below issues ? there are still
two part index info in driver and executor side ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And also chances of loading btree on each executor is more for every query
because there is no guarantee that same block goes to same executor every
time. It will be worse in case of dynamic containers.

Liang
