    I did some experimenting with `toLocalIteratorAndServe` and did not see any 
performance gain - it was actually a little worse in local mode at least.  It 
might be worth checking out again though.  There are other ways to go about 
serving to python, but the current implementation seemed to be the least 
intrusive to Spark.
