Josh Wills commented on CRUNCH-320:
-----------------------------------

No, materialized collections are stored on disk and are streamed into the 
client one record at a time. If you never call iterator() on the returned 
Iterable<T>, it won't be read into the client at all.

I expect that my patch will fix the problem, yes-- please feel free to apply it 
and let me know if there's a problem.

> Materialize several PObject & PCollection objects in parallel (deferred 
> materialization)

> Currently, Crunch blocks and materializes PCollections (through 
> foo.materialize()) and PObjects (through foo.getValue()) on demand, but it 
> would be a significant performance improvement if we could mark several of 
> these objects as to be materialized, and then materialize all of them in 
> parallel as part of a pipeline.run() call.
