> Input metrics don't work for coalesce()'d RDD's

> In every case where we set input metrics (from both Hadoop and block storage) 
> we currently assume that exactly one input partition is computed within the 
> task. This is not a correct assumption in the general case. The main example 
> in the current API is coalesce(), but user-defined RDD's could also be 
> affected.
> To deal with the most general case, we would need to support the notion of a 
> single task having multiple input sources. A more surgical and less general 
> fix is to simply go to HadoopRDD and check if there are already inputMetrics 
> defined for the task with the same "type". If there are, then merge in the 
> new data rather than blowing away the old one.
> This wouldn't cover case where, e.g. a single task has input from both 
> on-disk and in-memory blocks. It _would_ cover the case where someone calls 
> coalesce on a HadoopRDD... which is more common.
