> Key: SPARK-9326
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9326
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Kay Ousterhout
> Assignee: Kay Ousterhout
> Priority: Minor
>
> A lock file is used to ensure multiple executors running on the same machine
> don't download the same file concurrently. Spark never closes these lock
> files (we release the lock, but releasing the lock does not close the
> underlying file). In theory, if an executor fetched a large number of files,
> this could eventually lead to an issue with too many open files.
