> Sometimes, we just want to a fixed number of items randomly selected from an 
> RDD, for example, before sort an RDD we need to gather a fixed number of keys 
> from each partitions.
> In order to do this, we need to two pass on the RDD, get the total number, 
> then calculate the right ratio for sampling. In fact, we could do this in one 
> pass.
