Reynold Xin commented on SPARK-6479:
------------------------------------
[~zhanzhang] I thought about this more -- can you rename everything to
"external block store" rather than "offheap store"? I think offheap will be
very confusing, because we are already using offheap memory in Spark (through
DirectByteBuffer and Netty), and will likely use it more.
