Ah, so I guess this *is* still an issue since we needed to use a bitmap for tracking zero-sized blocks (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3740; this isn't just a performance issue; it's necessary for correctness). This will require a bit more effort to fix, since we'll either have to find a way to use a fixed size / capped size encoding for MapOutputStatuses (which might require changes to let us fetch empty blocks safely) or figure out some other strategy for shipping these statues.
I've filed https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5077 to try to come up with a proper fix. In the meantime, I recommend that you increase your Akka frame size.
