Sun Rui commented on SPARK-14037: --------------------------------- Currently, createDataFrame does not allow specifying partitions., otherwise you can try specifying the number of partitions to increase parallelism. Worker metrics of SparkR shell can be get in Spark UI. Can you find "executor summary"? > count(df) is very slow for dataframe constrcuted using SparkR::createDataFrame > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SPARK-14037 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14037 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SparkR > Affects Versions: 1.6.1 > Environment: Ubuntu 12.04 > RAM : 6 GB > Spark 1.6.1 Standalone > Reporter: Samuel Alexander > Labels: performance, sparkR > > Any operations on dataframe created using SparkR::createDataFrame is very > slow. > I have a CSV of size ~ 6MB.
