Github user JoshRosen commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2944#issuecomment-60859702 What if we had a 1000-node cluster, though, and kept the default heartbeat interval of 10 seconds? In that case, we'd be sending a huge flood of data to the driver, 99.9% of which end up being overwritten / discarded. From a performance / stability perspective, it's probably better to fetch this on-demand. I'm going to see how long it takes to throw together a quick "actor in the executor" prototype.
