             Summary: Multiple unionAll on Dataframe seems to cause repeated calculations in a "Fibonacci" manner
                 Key: SPARK-12691
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12691
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Spark Core
         Environment: Tested in Spark 1.3 and 1.4.
            Reporter: Allen Liang


Multiple unionAll on Dataframe seems to cause repeated calculations. Here is the sample code to reproduce this issue.

val dfs = for (i<-0 to 100) yield {
  val df = sc.parallelize((0 to 10).zipWithIndex).toDF("A", "B")
  df
}

var i = 1
val s1 = System.currentTimeMillis()
dfs.reduce{(a,b)=>{
  val t1 = System.currentTimeMillis()
  val dd = a unionAll b
  val t2 = System.currentTimeMillis()
  println("Round " + i + " unionAll took " + (t2 - t1) + " ms")
  i = i + 1
  dd
  }
}
val s2 = System.currentTimeMillis()
println((i - 1) + " unionAll took totally " + (s2 - s1) + " ms")

And it printed as follows. And as you can see, it looks like each unionAll seems to redo all the previous unionAll and therefore took self time plus all previous time, which, not precisely speaking, makes each unionAll look like a "Fibonacci" action.

BTW, this behaviour doesn't happen if I directly union all the RDDs in Dataframe.
