> j = itertools.cycle(range(8))
> rows = [(i, j.next(), ' '.join(map(lambda x: x[2], loremipsum.generate_sentences(600)))) for i in range(500)] * 100
> rrd = sc.parallelize(rows, 128)
> {code}
> When I run it with:
> {noformat}
> <system path>/spark-2.1.1-bin-hadoop2.7/bin/spark-submit <home directory>/writeTest.py
> {noformat}
> it fails with a 'Java heap space' error:

> The data I create here approximates my actual data. The third element of each tuple should be around 25k, and there are 50k tuples overall. I estimate that I should have around 1.2G of data. 
> Why then does it fail? All parts of the system should have enough memory?
