holdenk commented on SPARK-2032:
--------------------------------
I'm assuming since there hasn't been any activity for awhile [~prashant_] isn't
working on this anymore? Is this something we still think would make sense to
add to the RDD API?
> Add an RDD.samplePartitions method for partition-level sampling
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-2032

> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Spark Core
> Reporter: Matei Zaharia
> Assignee: Prashant Sharma
> Priority: Minor
>
> This would allow us to sample a percent of the partitions and not have to
> materialize all of them. It's less uniform but much faster and may be useful
> for quickly exploring data.
