    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.
