Kevin English commented on SPARK-20074:
---------------------------------------
I found this issue from external content that indicated that this limits IO
write block sizes, for instance for parquet files following a N:1
re-partitioning. Can someone confirm that being able to radically increase
this value would reduce spilling when aggregating a large number of small files?
