Re: Top, takeOrdered, sortByKey
Let me clarify - taking 1 elements of 5 elements using top or takeOrdered is taking about 25-50s which seems to be slow. I also try to use sortByKey to sort the elements to get a time estimate and I get numbers in the same range. I'm running this application on a cluster with 5 nodes and using 3 cores each. I'm interested in knowing what tuning can be done to get better performance for top/takeOrdered than 25-50s. I want to eventually scale it up to use 77 million elements but right now I want to see how performance of either top or takeOrdered could be improved for smaller sample I'm using.

Very naively, you would expect scoring 77M events to take ~1000 times as long as scoring 50k events, right? The fact that it doesn't take that much longer is probably b/c of the overhead of just launching the jobs.
