Github user pwendell commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/1772#issuecomment-51130759 Can we say that the accumulator update will be attemtped at least once? I think this is the bigger concern for users... then for built-in accumulators we can guarentee the update succeeds at least once. I suppose if users are writing business logic around accumulators, they might actually want it to fail explicitly.
