> I am using MongoDB to read the DB and it provides an Iterable (and not a 
> List) to access the results.  This is similar to the ResultSet in SQL and is 
> done this way so that you can process things row by row and not have to pull 
> in a potentially large DB all at once.  It might be nice if parallelize(List) 
> could instead operate on an Iterable to allow a similar efficience.   SInce a 
> List is an Iterable, this would would be backwards compatible.  However, I'm 
> new to Spark so not sure if that might violate some other design point.
