    @ankurdave Ah of course. Hm, the thing is there is a loop of 
transformations here, so in theory you'd have to save up all the RDD references 
and unpersist at the very end -- but even that may be insufficient as the 
return value isn't even materialized before it's returned. Also, operations 
like `outerJoinVertices` seem to `cache()` vertices internally too. It's a bit 
like the old days of memory management!
    
    What's the right thing here? don't `cache()` in this method at all since 
lower layers do some of that management? force materialization?
