Nicholas Chammas commented on SPARK-16427:
------------------------------------------

Oh nevermind, this information is all available here: 
http://spark.apache.org/docs/1.6.2/programming-guide.html#rdd-persistence

> Expand documentation on the various RDD storage levels

>                 Key: SPARK-16427
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16427
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Documentation
>            Reporter: Nicholas Chammas
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Looking at the docs here
> http://spark.apache.org/docs/1.6.2/api/python/pyspark.html#pyspark.StorageLevel
> A newcomer to Spark won’t understand the meaning of {{_2}}, or the meaning of 
> {{_SER}} (or its value), and won’t understand how exactly memory and disk 
> play together when something like {{MEMORY_AND_DISK}} is selected.
> We should expand this documentation to explain what the various levels mean 
> and perhaps even when a user might want to use them.
