Hi [~bghit], thanks for the repro steps. I tried it out and saw the output 
splits from {{saveAsTextFile}} go to RAM_DISK.

I used Spark v 1.4.0 + Apache Hadoop 2.6.0. Let me try it out with 2.7.0 also 
since that's what you had.

> HDFS Lazy_Persist policy provide possibility to cache the RDD off_heap in 
> hdfs. We may want to provide similar capacity to Tachyon by leveraging hdfs 
> RAM_DISK feature, if the user environment does not have tachyon deployed. 
> With this feature, it potentially provides possibility to share RDD in memory 
> across different jobs and even share with jobs other than spark, and avoid 
> the RDD recomputation if executors crash.
