Jakob Odersky commented on SPARK-12958:
---------------------------------------

I agree that it's very specific, maybe it would make sense to include a more 
generic version of {{MapAccumulator}}. Something like MapAccumulator[A, B], 
where B has to have an implicit AccumulatorParam[B] itself?

> Spark by default supports accumulators of Int,Long,Double,Float.
> It would be good if we can have a Map accumulator where each executor can 
> just add key->value pairs and driver can have access to the aggregated value 
> for each key in the map.
> In this way, it would also be easier to use accumulators for various metrics. 
> We can define metrics at runtime as the map can take any string key.
