> Is the description here correct?

We initially would like to implement an iterator which will spill large data onto disks on client side. Currently only `ResettableExternalBuffer` in Blink planner can achieve this conveniently. But after an offline discussion with @KurtYoung yesterday, we decided to first simplify the implementation to a memory-only version. So this iterator is not related to Blink planner now. I'll update the description. The iterator is not running in `JobClient` but actually uses `JobClient`. It is indeed runs in the client side and used by the users. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
