Madhu Siddalingaiah commented on SPARK-983:
-------------------------------------------

Can someone comment on the scope of this feature?
My specific interest is to sort each partition in an RDD given a comparison 
function.
This can be done now if all partitions fit in memory, but I don't see an easy 
way to do it if partitions are larger than available memory.

> External hashing & sorting support
