Josh Rosen commented on SPARK-1418:
-----------------------------------

This issue's description is now a little confusing, since 
{{_get_unmangled_rdd}} has been removed from the Python MLlib bindings.  Does 
anyone know if this issue is still relevant?  If so, could we update its 
description?  Otherwise, let's close this.

> Python MLlib's _get_unmangled_rdd should uncache RDDs when training is done

> Right now when PySpark converts a Python RDD of NumPy vectors to a Java one, 
> it caches the Java one, since many of the algorithms are iterative. We should 
> call unpersist() at the end of the algorithm though to free cache space. In 
> addition it may be good to persist the Java RDD with 
> StorageLevel.MEMORY_AND_DISK instead of going back through the NumPy 
> conversion.. it will almost certainly be faster.
