It's only really mildly interactive. When I used presto+hive in the past
(just a consumer not an admin) it seemed to be able to provide answers
within ~2m even for fairly large data sets. Hoping I can get a similar
level of responsiveness with spark.

Thanks, Sonal! I'll take a look at the example log processor and see what I
can come up with.
