Hi Alex, SparkContext.submitJob() is marked as experimental -- most client programs shouldn't be using it. What are you looking to do?
For multiplexing jobs, one thing you can do is have multiple threads in your client JVM each submit jobs on your SparkContext job. This is described here in the docs: http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/job-scheduling.html#scheduling-within-an-application Andrew On Mon, Dec 22, 2014 at 1:32 PM, Alessandro Baretta <alexbare...@gmail.com> wrote: > Fellow Sparkers, > > I'm rather puzzled at the submitJob API.
