Hi How do you figure out 500gig~3900 partitions? I am trying to do the math. If I assume 64mb block size then 1G~16 blocks and 500g~8000 blocks. If we assume split and block sizes are same, shouldn't we end up with 8k partitions? On 4 May 2015 17:49, "Akhil Das" wrote: > 500GB of data will have

500GB of data will have nearly 3900 partitions and if you can have nearly that many number of cores and around 500GB of memory then things will be lightening fast. :) Thanks Best Regards On Sun, May 3, 2015 at 12:49 PM, sherine ahmed wrote: > I need to use spark to upload a 500 GB data from had
