Github user srowen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/18231 I'm not clear that's true, no. Not, at least, in the lifetime of the iterator. That's what has to be true for this to help anything. Do you have evidence this is true? for example if you have tests that clearly show the memory is released earlier, that would be good evidence.
