    @pwendell regarding the number of subdirectories issue. The number if 
configurable: "shuffleManager.conf.get("spark.tachyonStore.subDirectories", 
"64").toInt"
    Tachyon faces the same issue as local filesystem. There will be pressure if 
there are too many files directly in one folder. So, I suggest we leave the 
sub-directories logic here. If you prefer a smaller number of folder, e.g. 
1,2,4,8, we can change the default value of "spark.tachyonStore.subDirectories"
