> When building Spark with {{build/mvn}} or {{dev/run-tests}}, a Java warning appears repeatedly on STDERR:
> {{OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option MaxPermSize=512M; support was removed in 8.0}}
> This warning is due to {{build/mvn}} adding the {{-XX:MaxPermSize=512M}} option to {{MAVEN_OPTS}}. When compiling with Java 7, this parameter is essential. With Java 8, the parameter leads to the warning above.
> Because {{build/mvn}} adds {{MaxPermSize}} to {{MAVEN_OPTS}}, even if that environment variable doesn't contain the option, setting {{MAVEN_OPTS}} to a string that does not contain {{MaxPermSize}} has no effect.
