Sven Krasser commented on SPARK-5395:
-------------------------------------

I've definitely seen this behavior when adding additional reduceByKey 
operations that could execute in parallel (around 2 workers per such 
operation), but in my small test script it's a single reduceByKey operation 
followed by a single coalesce statement. I'm running it right now, and it 
already spiked up to over 30 Python workers per executor, so there must be 
something else going on on top of this.

> During job execution a large number of Python worker accumulates eventually 
> causing YARN to kill containers for being over their memory allocation (in 
> the case below that is about 8G for executors plus 6G for overhead per 
> container). 
> In this instance, at the time of killing the container 97 pyspark.daemon 
> processes had accumulated.
