> When broadcasting a fairly large numpy matrix in a Spark 2.0.1 program, there is an error serializing the object with:
> {{OverflowError: cannot serialize a bytes object larger than 4 GiB}}
> in the stack trace.
> This is because Python's pickle serialization (with protocol <= 3) uses a 32-bit integer for the object size, and so cannot handle objects larger than 4 gigabytes.  This was changed in Protocol 4 of pickle (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3154/#bit-opcodes-for-large-objects) and is available in Python 3.4+.  
> I would like to use this protocol for broadcasting and in the default PickleSerializer where available to make pyspark more robust to broadcasting large variables.
