> Each task has a reference to a broadcast'ed task binary `Array[Byte]` - not the object. This `Array[Byte]` is pulled to each executor once - and for each subsequent task, this `Array[Byte]` is reused to deserialize and create a new task closure. So essentially we are trying to save on a jvm local deserialization cost. > > Explicit use of broadcast variables is documented to be read only - but with task closures, I would be very reluctant to assume this behavior. If the instance is reused, task closures can start having side effects on other tasks in the same executor. Okay, I get what you mean. Especially in Hadoop. My plan is to create a new binary from executor binary,use System.arraycopy(). How do you like it, sir?:) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
