https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10143 With this PR, we will set min split size to parquet's block size (row group size) set in the conf if the min split size is smaller. So, we can avoid have too many tasks and even useless tasks for reading parquet data. I tested it locally. The table I have has 343MB and it is in my local FS. Because I did not set any min/max split size, the default split size was 32MB and the map stage had 11 tasks. But there were only three tasks that actually read data. With my PR, there were only three tasks in the map stage. Here is the difference. Without this PR:  With this PR:  Even if the block size setting does match the actual block size of parquet file, I think it is still generally good to use parquet's block size setting if min split size is smaller than this block size. Tested it on a cluster using ``` val count = sqlContext.table("""store_sales""").groupBy().count().queryExecution.executedPlan(3).execute().count ``` Basically, it reads 0 column of table `store_sales`. My table has 1824 parquet files with size from 80MB to 280MB (1 to 3 row group sizes). Without this patch, in a 16 worker cluster, the job had 5023 tasks and spent 102s. With this patch, the job had 2893 tasks and spent 64s. It is still not as good as using one mapper per file (1824 tasks and 42s), but it is much better than our master.

Apache Spark
Spark is a fast and general cluster computing system for Big Data. It provides high-level APIs in Scala, Java, and Python, 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".
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-cluster" or "yarn-client" 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. See also "Third Party Hadoop Distributions" for guidance on building a Spark application that works with a particular distribution.
Configuration
Please refer to the Configuration guide in the online documentation for an overview on how to configure Spark.
