> Hi,
> I recently played with the {{repartitionByRange}} method for DataFrame 
> introduced in SPARK-22614. For DataFrames larger than the one tested in the 
> code (which has only 10 elements), the code sends back random results.
> As a test for showing the inconsistent behaviour, I start as the unit code 
> used to test {{repartitionByRange}} 
> ([here|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/test/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/DataFrameSuite.scala#L352])
>  but I increase the size of the initial array to 1000, repartition using 3 
> partitions, and count the number of element per-partitions:
>  
> {code}
> // Shuffle numbers from 0 to 1000, and make a DataFrame
> val df = Random.shuffle(0.to(1000)).toDF("val")
> // Repartition it using 3 partitions
> // Sum up number of elements in each partition, and collect it.
> // And do it several times
> for (i <- 0 to 9) {
>   var counts = df.repartitionByRange(3, col("val"))
>     .mapPartitions{part => Iterator(part.size)}
>     .collect()
>   println(counts.toList)
> }
> // -> the number of elements in each partition varies...
> {code}
> I do not know whether it is expected (I will dig further in the code), but it 
> sounds like a bug.
>  Or I just misinterpret what {{repartitionByRange}} is for?
>  Any ideas?
> Thanks!
>  Julien
