Patrick Wendell commented on SPARK-2228:
----------------------------------------

I'm not sure it's a good idea to expose this to users. The current size of the 
buffer is a very large number of events: 10,000. If a user overflows this 
buffer it means that the program is not in steady state... it will send the 
wrong message to users allowing them to size this buffer.

The real issue here is that there is an efficiency problem in the listener that 
receives these events. In the case where blocks are being dropped or persisted, 
we do some operations that are linear in the number of total blocks ever 
persisted. This is an efficiency problem with the current implementation of the 
storage status listener when blocks are being persisted and dropped frequently.

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Spark Core
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
>            Reporter: Baoxu Shi

> We are using `SaveAsObjectFile` and `objectFile` to cut off lineage during 
> iterative computing, but after several hundreds of iterations, there will be 
> `NoSuchElementsError`. We check the code and locate the problem at 
> `org.apache.spark.ui.jobs.JobProgressListener`. When `onStageCompleted` is 
> called, such `stageId` can not be found in `stageIdToPool`, but it does exist 
> in other HashMaps. So we think `onStageSubmitted` is not properly called. 
> `Spark` did add a stage but failed to send the message to listeners. When 
> sending `finish` message to listeners, the error occurs. 
> This problem will cause a huge number of `active stages` showing in 
> `SparkUI`, which is really annoying. But it may not affect the final result, 
> according to the result of my testing code.
> I'm willing to help solve this problem, any idea about which part should I 
> change? I assume `org.apache.spark.scheduler.SparkListenerBus` have something 
> to do with it but it looks fine to me.
> FYI, here is the test code that could reproduce the problem. I do not know 
> who to put code here with highlight, so I put the code on gist to make the 
> issue looks clean.
