Right. When the FileStreamFunction run multiple times in cluster, all
instance of cluster will see modified file and process it. It will create
duplicated records. I haven't tested with a cluster on YARN yet, but I have
tested with local cluster with 5 parallelism and the result is same as exactly
expected.
I think that this must be mentioned in document.
