    @ScrapCodes , I just realized that we may not be able to provide an empty 
class for failure detector
    
    because in some cases, the user needs to connect external akka system with 
spark's actor system, if an empty class does not send any heartbeat...the 
external akka system will always disassociate with it...
    
    if we send heartbeat in the empty class...how about the frequency?
    
    So...I think leaving the large interval for sending heartbeat might be 
better...at least it provides some interface for the external system to 
integrate...
