> {quote}
> We have been running into performance problems using Python UDFs with
> DataFrames at large scale.
> From the implementation of BatchPythonEvaluation, it looks like the goal was
> to reuse the PythonRDD code. It caches the entire child RDD so that it can do
> two passes over the data. One to give to the PythonRDD, then one to join the
> python lambda results with the original row (which may have java objects that
> should be passed through).
> In addition, it caches all the columns, even the ones that don't need to be
> processed by the Python UDF. In the cases I was working with, I had a 500
> column table, and i wanted to use a python UDF for one column, and it ended
> up caching all 500 columns.
