"""
PySpark supports custom serializers for transferring data; this can improve
performance.

By default, PySpark uses L{PickleSerializer} to serialize objects using Python's
C{cPickle} serializer, which can serialize nearly any Python object.
Other serializers, like L{MarshalSerializer}, support fewer datatypes but can be
faster.

The serializer is chosen when creating L{SparkContext}:

>>> from pyspark.context import SparkContext
>>> from pyspark.serializers import MarshalSerializer
>>> sc = SparkContext('local', 'test', serializer=MarshalSerializer())
>>> sc.parallelize(list(range(1000))).map(lambda x: 2 * x).take(10)
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18]
>>> sc.stop()

PySpark serializes objects in batches; by default, the batch size is chosen based
on the size of objects and is also configurable by SparkContext's C{batchSize}
parameter:

>>> sc = SparkContext('local', 'test', batchSize=2)
>>> rdd = sc.parallelize(range(16), 4).map(lambda x: x)

Behind the scenes, this creates a JavaRDD with four partitions, each of
which contains two batches of two objects:

>>> rdd.glom().collect()
[[0, 1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7], [8, 9, 10, 11], [12, 13, 14, 15]]
>>> int(rdd._jrdd.count())
8
>>> sc.stop()
