Is the broadcasted variable distributed to every executor or every worker? Now 
i'm more confused
I thought it was supposed to save memory by distributing it to every worker and 
the executors would share that copy

The broadcasted object is serialized in driver and sent to the executors. And 
in the executor, it will deserialize the bytes to get the broadcasted object.

I'd like to know if the broadcasted object gets serialized when accessed by the 
executor during the execution of a task?
I know that it gets serialized from the driver to the worker. This question is 
inside worker when executor JVM's are accessing it

thanks
