## What changes were proposed in this pull request? coalesce doesn't handle UnionRDD with partial locality properly. I had a user who had a UnionRDD that was made up of mapPartitionRDD without preferred locations and a checkpointedRDD with preferred locations (getting from hdfs). It took the driver over 20 minutes to setup the groups and put the partitions into those groups before it even started any tasks. Even perhaps worse is it didn't end up with the number of partitions he was asking for because it didn't put a partition in each of the groups properly. The changes in this patch get rid of a n^2 while loop that was causing the 20 minutes, it properly distributes the partitions to have at least one per group, and it changes from using the rotation iterator which got the preferred locations many times to get all the preferred locations once up front. Note that the n^2 while loop that I removed in setupGroups took so long because all of the partitions with preferred locations were already assigned to group, so it basically looped through every single one and wasn't ever able to assign it. At the time I had 960 partitions with preferred locations and 1020 without and did the outer while loop 319 times because that is the # of groups left to create. Note that each of those times through the inner while loop is going off to hdfs to get the block locations, so this is extremely inefficient. ## How was the this patch tested? Added unit tests for this case and ran existing ones that applied to make sure no regressions. Also manually tested on the users production job to make sure it fixed their issue. It created the proper number of partitions and now it takes about 6 seconds rather then 20 minutes. I did also run some basic manual tests with spark-shell doing coalesced to smaller number, same number, and then greater with shuffle.

Apache Spark
Spark is a fast and general cluster computing system for Big Data. It provides high-level APIs in Scala, Java, Python, and R, and an optimized engine that supports general computation graphs for data analysis. It also supports a rich set of higher-level tools including Spark SQL for SQL and DataFrames, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Spark Streaming for stream processing.
Online Documentation
You can find the latest Spark documentation, including a programming guide, on the project web page and project wiki. This README file only contains basic setup instructions.
Building Spark
Spark is built using Apache Maven. To build Spark and its example programs, run:
build/mvn -DskipTests clean package
(You do not need to do this if you downloaded a pre-built package.) More detailed documentation is available from the project site, at "Building Spark". For developing Spark using an IDE, see Eclipse and IntelliJ.
Interactive Scala Shell
The easiest way to start using Spark is through the Scala shell:
./bin/spark-shell
Try the following command, which should return 1000:
scala> sc.parallelize(1 to 1000).count()
Interactive Python Shell
Alternatively, if you prefer Python, you can use the Python shell:
./bin/pyspark
And run the following command, which should also return 1000:
>>> sc.parallelize(range(1000)).count()
Example Programs
Spark also comes with several sample programs in the examples
directory.
To run one of them, use ./bin/run-example <class> [params]
. For example:
./bin/run-example SparkPi
will run the Pi example locally.
You can set the MASTER environment variable when running examples to submit
examples to a cluster. This can be a mesos:// or spark:// URL,
"yarn" to run on YARN, and "local" to run
locally with one thread, or "local[N]" to run locally with N threads. You
can also use an abbreviated class name if the class is in the examples
package. For instance:
MASTER=spark://host:7077 ./bin/run-example SparkPi
Many of the example programs print usage help if no params are given.
Running Tests
Testing first requires building Spark. Once Spark is built, tests can be run using:
./dev/run-tests
Please see the guidance on how to run tests for a module, or individual tests.
A Note About Hadoop Versions
Spark uses the Hadoop core library to talk to HDFS and other Hadoop-supported storage systems. Because the protocols have changed in different versions of Hadoop, you must build Spark against the same version that your cluster runs.
Please refer to the build documentation at "Specifying the Hadoop Version" for detailed guidance on building for a particular distribution of Hadoop, including building for particular Hive and Hive Thriftserver distributions.
Configuration
Please refer to the Configuration Guide in the online documentation for an overview on how to configure Spark.
