> Whenever a task finishes, the accumulator updates from that task are immediately sent back to the driver.  When the accumulator updates are big, this is inefficient because (a) a lot more data has to be sent to the driver and (b) the driver has to do all the work of merging the updates together.
> Probably doesn't matter for small accumulators / low number of tasks, but if both are big, this could be a big bottleneck.
