    Since checkpoint will be done recursively on RDD parents, we need to avoid 
one RDD traversed for multiple times. E.g. for following lineage:
    A -- B -- C -- D -- E
             `-- F --' 
    When we call E.count(), we shall avoid traverse A and B for twice, since 
there are two path to these two nodes: EDCBA and EDFBA. Or else the traverse 
time will increase exponentially.
