             Summary: In SerializableWritable, don't load defaults when instantiating Configuration
                 Key: SPARK-8135
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8135
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Spark Core
            Reporter: Sandy Ryza
            Assignee: Sandy Ryza


Calling "new Configuration()" is an expensive operation because it loads any Hadoop configuration XMLs from disk.

In SerializableWritable, we call new Configuration needlessly when instantiating an ObjectWritable.  The ObjectWritable only needs the Configuration for its class cache, not for any Hadoop properties that might be in XML files, so it should be ok to call new Configuration with loadDefaults = false.
