Michael Armbrust commented on SPARK-8008:
-----------------------------------------

I'm okay adding documentation about this behavior where ever you think it would 
help, but I would say this is "by design".

I'd suggest that if you want lower concurrency use fewer partitions to extract 
the data and then {{repartition}} if you need higher concurrency for subsequent 
operations.

> Spark tries to load as many partitions as possible in parallel, which can in 
> turn overload the database although it would be possible to load all 
> partitions given a lower concurrency.
> It would be nice to either limit the maximum concurrency or to at least warn 
> about this behavior.
