Github user staple commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2362#issuecomment-55681425 @mengxr I ran for 100 iterations. Loaded data from disk using python's SparkContext.pickleFile() (disk is ssd). I did not do any manual caching. For more details, you can also see the test script I included in my description above. I also saved the logs from my test runs if those are helpful to see. During the 10m record run I saw many log messages about 'CacheManager: Not enough space to cache partition' which I interpreted as indicating lack of caching due to memory exhaustion. But I haven't diagnosed the slowdown beyond that.
