Thanks Jacek and Kazuaki, I guess got the wrong impression about the C++ API from somewhere--- I think I read it in a JIRA wish list. If the byte array is accessed through sun.misc.Unsafe, that's what I mean by off-heap. I found the Platform class, which provides access to the bytes in Unsafe in a

Is this not the place to ask such questions? Where can I get a hint as to how to access the new off-heap cache, or C++ API, if it exists? I'm willing to do my own research, but I have to have a place to start. (In fact, this is the first step in that research.) Thanks, -- Jim -- View this mess

Hi, I'm coming from the particle physics community and I'm also very interested in the development of this project. We have a huge C++ codebase and would like to start using the higher-level abstractions of Spark in our data analyses. To this end, I've been developing code that copies data from ou
