-----------------------------------

             Summary: Avoid writing a shuffle file if a partition has no output 
(empty)
                 Key: SPARK-12400
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12400
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Shuffle
            Reporter: Reynold Xin


A Spark user was asking for automatic setting of # reducers. When I pushed for 
more, it turned out the problem for them is that 200 creates too many files, 
when most partitions are empty.

It seems like a simple thing we can do is to avoid creating shuffle files if a 
partition is empty.
