localCheckpoint: localCheckpoint

In SparkR: R Front End for 'Apache Spark'

Description

Returns a locally checkpointed version of this SparkDataFrame. Checkpointing can be used to truncate the logical plan, which is especially useful in iterative algorithms where the plan may grow exponentially. Local checkpoints are stored in the executors using the caching subsystem and therefore they are not reliable.

Usage

localCheckpoint(x, eager = TRUE)

## S4 method for signature 'SparkDataFrame'
localCheckpoint(x, eager = TRUE)

Arguments

x	A SparkDataFrame
eager	whether to locally checkpoint this SparkDataFrame immediately

Value

a new locally checkpointed SparkDataFrame

Note

localCheckpoint since 2.3.0
