Both works the same way, but with SparkSQL you will get the optimization etc 
done by the catalyst. One important thing to consider is the # partitions and 
the key distribution (when you are doing RDD.join), If the keys are not evenly 
distributed across machines then you can see the process chocking on a single 
task (more like it takes hell lot of time for one task to execute compared to 
others in that stage).ThanksBest Regards

Hi,May I know the performance difference the rdd.join function and spark SQL 
join operation. If I want to join several big Rdds, how should I decide which 
one I should use? What are the factors to consider here?  Thanks!
