All: I am putting Spark SQL 1.1 through its paces (in a POC) and have been pleasantly surprised with what can be done with such a young technology. I have run into an exception (listed below) that I suspect relates to the number of columns in the table I am querying. There are 336 columns in the table. I have included the Scala / Spark SQL I am running. This Spark SQL code runs just fine when run against "narrower" tables. Also, we have purpose built this POC cluster with lots of memory and we have set up Impala and Spark SQL with roughly the same amounts of memory. There are 7 worker nodes with 20GB memory for Impala and Spark SQL each. We are using Impala as a comparative benchmark and sanity check. The equivalent SQL runs just fine in Impala (see below). I am a bit of a noob and any help (even with the code below) is greatly appreciated. Also, is there a document that lists current Spark SQL limitations/issues?
