Nicholas Chammas commented on SPARK-3821:
-----------------------------------------

I need to brush up on my statistics, but I think the difference between base 
AMI and Packer AMI is not statistically significant.

The benchmark just tested time from instance launch to SSH availability. 
Nothing was installed or done with the instances after SSH became available. 
(i.e. I wasn't creating Spark clusters.) I still have to post updated 
benchmarks for full cluster launches.

Is there anything else you wanted to see before reviewing this proposal in more 
detail?

> Right now the creation of Spark AMIs or Docker containers is done manually. 
> With tools like [Packer|http://www.packer.io/], we should be able to automate 
> this work, and do so in such a way that multiple types of machine images can 
> be created from a single template.
