Jiang Xingbo commented on SPARK-24941: -------------------------------------- Shall we add something like `spark.default.parallelism`? It maybe not like a fixed number but be a fraction to say that any barrier stage shall launch tasks less than the fraction * totalCores ? > Add RDDBarrier.coalesce() function > ---------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-24941 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-24941 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Spark Core > Affects Versions: 2.4.0 > Reporter: Jiang Xingbo > Priority: Major > > https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/21758#discussion_r204917245 > The number of partitions from the input data can be unexpectedly large, eg. > if you do > {code} > sc.textFile(...).barrier().mapPartitions() > {code} > The number of input partitions is based on the hdfs input splits. We shall > provide a way in RDDBarrier to enable users to specify the number of tasks in > a barrier stage. Maybe something like RDDBarrier.coalesce(numPartitions: Int) > . -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
