    hypothetical situation: Lets say we allocated 1 core per executor and the 
function within the SparkR lapply called the parallel package mclapply, but 
within mclapply we set mc.cores to 4. Would the distributed R code on the 
executors be forced to use just one core or would R have the ability of 
accessing 4 cores on the executors despite having allocated just 1 core? 
(assuming the chip has 4 cores)
