Fei Wang commented on SPARK-17556: ---------------------------------- Yes, the main different is is does not introduce overhead to driver, for broadcast the executor do need all the result of an RDD, i task a look of your PR, i think you also collect all the result of that rdd to executor, right? > Executor side broadcast for broadcast joins > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-17556 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17556 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Spark Core, SQL > Reporter: Reynold Xin > Attachments: executor broadcast.pdf > > > Currently in Spark SQL, in order to perform a broadcast join, the driver must > collect the result of an RDD and then broadcast it. This introduces some > extra latency. It might be possible to broadcast directly from executors. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
