thanks @tdas for your view. I agree with what you said . Just for my
understanding , for RDD Partitions which are cached can also be evicted from
memory by BlockManager which is more often the case in Spark . But for Spark
Streaming case , the blocks are generating at much faster rate and cause large
number of unwanted blocks to be stored in remote memory if local store failed.
If Receiver do retry those blocks (which normally the case ) and retry is
success , there will be multiple copies of same blocks will exists across
nodes. This seems to me little unwanted .
Not sure why you called de-optimizing existing code path, as for RDD
partitions to be dropped from memory can happen anytime during its life cycle.
