> Serialization between Scala / Python / R is pretty slow. Python and R both 
> work pretty well with column batch interface (e.g. numpy arrays). Technically 
> we should be able to just pass column batches around with minimal 
> serialization (maybe even zero copy memory).
> Note that this depends on some internal refactoring to use a column batch 
> interface in Spark SQL.
