Github user JDrit commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/7004#issuecomment-116165233 This was intended to be a performance increase for spark-core with RDDs. This works separately from spark-avro. I realize that dataframes could also be used but the goal was to make it easier for users who just want to use RDDs.
