Alessio updated SPARK-15904: ---------------------------- Description: *Please Note*: even though the issue has been marked as "not a problem" and "resolved", this is actually a problem and wasn't resolved at all. Several people encountered memory issues using MLlib for large and complex problems (see ) Running MLlib K-Means on a ~400MB dataset (12 partitions), persisted on Memory and Disk. Everything's fine, although at the end of K-Means, after the number of iterations, the cost function value and the running time there's a nice "Removing RDD <idx> from persistent list" stage. However, during this stage there's a high memory pressure. Weird, since RDDs are about to be removed.
