You can have multiple contexts, you just have to increase the size of your
permgen (or run Java 8). The problem with this change is it makes things less
flexible since you would not longer be able to connect to multiple different
metastores from the same JVM. Given that mind closing this issue?
I'll also add that Spark 1.5 was released last week and we'll be releasing
Spark 1.5.1 shortly.
