    Hmm, good point, the behavior is a bit strange and I haven't thought of a 
concise way to document this.
    https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/R/pkg/R/context.R#L131
    
    Basically, it's the largest of numSlices or ceiling of data size divided by 
`spark.r.maxAllocationLimit` - *but* limited by length of the data (but this 
length is wrong if the data is a data.frame - since that length becomes the 
number of columns).
    
    Is this an unintentional behavior (ie. limited always by the number of 
columns even when the data size is larger then the 
`spark.r.maxAllocationLimit`)? I can't tell...
