There's a long recent thread in this list about stopping apps, subject was "stopping spark stream app"
at 1 second I wouldn't run repeated rdds, no. I'd take a look at subclassing, personally (you'll have to rebuild the streaming kafka project since a lot is private), but if topic changes dont happen that often, restarting the app when they do should be fine.
