Github user squito commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/8180#issuecomment-137745960 Sorry Andrew, I certainly didn't mean to imply that I knew your opinion on this particular patch -- as Sean said, I was just trying to point out the general situation. My point is just that new features add complexity, and make it harder to fix bugs; and we have plenty of complexity and bugs now. I don't mean to block the patch, its a cool feature. I'm just nervous about any change to the dag scheduler (eg., even my own proposal in https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/8427, which is 30 lines + 100 lines of tests, and most likely needs more testing still). Perhaps I err too much on the side of caution, I'm just providing a counterpoint. Thanks for adding the the additional tests, Matei. Btw, there is an example test for skipped stages you should be able to copy more or less here: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/8402
