Hi, 
Cross-posting this from users list.

I'm running on branch-1.1 and trying to do a simple transformation to a
relatively small dataset of 64GB and saveAsTextFile essentially hangs and
tasks are stuck in running mode with the following code: 

// Stalls with tasks running for over an hour with no tasks finishing.
Smallest partition is 10MB 
val data = sc.textFile("s3n://input") 
val reformatted = data.map(t =>
t.replace("Test(","").replace(")","").replaceAll(",","\t")) 
reformatted.saveAsTextFile("s3n://transformed") 

// This runs but stalls doing GC after filling up 150% of 650GB of memory 
val data = sc.textFile("s3n://input") 
val reformatted = data.map(t =>
t.replace("Test(","").replace(")","").replaceAll(",","\t")).cache 
reformatted.saveAsTextFile("s3n://transformed") 

Any idea if this is a parameter issue and there is something I should try
out? 

Thanks!
