Has anyone had some good experiences with Spark?

I put several weeks in to moving our machine learning pipeline over to Spark only to find I kept hitting a race condition in their scheduler.

After doing a bit of searching, it seems this is actually a known issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4454 and there's been a fix on their github for a while: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/3345 and yet in that time two releases have swung by bringing a tonne of features.

I ended up having to drop Spark ultimately because I wasn't confident about putting it in to production (the random OOMs and NPEs during development weren't great either). Does anyone have any positive experiences?
