Hi all,
I'm trying to run some spark job with spark-shell. What I want to do is
just to count the number of lines in a file.
I start the spark-shell with the default argument i.e just with
./bin/spark-shell.
Load the text file with sc.textFile("path") and then call count on my data.
When I do this, my data is always split in 52 partitions. I don't
understand why since I run it on a local machine with 8 cores and the
sc.defaultParallelism gives me 8.
Even, if I load the file with sc.textFile("path",8), I always get
data.partitions.size = 52
I use spark 1.1.1.
Any ideas ?
Cheers,
Jao
