[jira] [Comment Edited] (SPARK-17790) Support for parallelizing R data.frame larger than 2GB

Yes. Driver R and Driver JVM should be on the same machine.
I have not checked recently but there might be projects changing on how the Backend is connected that could be affected by this though

Yes.

> This issue is a more specific version of SPARK-17762. 
> Supporting larger than 2GB arguments is more general and arguably harder to do because the limit exists both in R and JVM (because we receive data as a ByteArray). However, to support parallalizing R data.frames that are larger than 2GB we can do what PySpark does.
> PySpark uses files to transfer bulk data between Python and JVM. It has worked well for the large community of Spark Python users.
