> In recent versions of Spark the shuffle implementation is much more aggressive about writing many files out to disk at once.  Most linux kernels have a default limit in the number of open files per process, and Spark can exhaust this limit.  The current hash-based shuffle implementation requires as many files as the product of the map and reduce partition counts in a wide dependency.
> In order to reduce the errors we're seeing on the user list, we should determine a value that is considered "too low" for normal operations and log a warning on executor startup when that value isn't met.
> 1. determine what ulimit is acceptable
> 2. log when that value isn't met
