>                 Key: SPARK-1468
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1468
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.0
>            Reporter: Erik Selin
>            Assignee: Erik Selin
>             Fix For: 0.9.2, 1.0.1
>
>
> In python the default hash method uses the memory address of objects. Since 
> None is an object None will get partitioned into different partitions 
> depending on which python process it is run in. This causes some really odd 
> results when None key's are used in the partitionBy.
> I've created a fix using a consistent hashing method that sends None to 0. 
> That pr lives at https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/371
