Jose Soltren created SPARK-19181:
------------------------------------

             Summary: SparkListenerSuite.local metrics fails when average 
executorDeserializeTime is too short.
                 Key: SPARK-19181
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19181
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tests
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Jose Soltren
            Priority: Minor


https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/test/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/SparkListenerSuite.scala#L249

The "local metrics" test asserts that tasks should take more than 1ms on 
average to complete, even though a code comment notes that this is a small test 
and tasks may finish faster. I've been seeing some "failures" here on fast 
systems that finish these tasks quite quickly.

There are a few ways forward here:
1. Disable this test.
2. Relax this check.
3. Implement sub-millisecond granularity for task times throughout Spark.
4. (Imran Rashid's suggestion) Add buffer time by, say, having the task 
reference a partition that implements a custom Externalizable.readExternal, 
which always waits 1ms before returning.
