  • Moisture could be a problem, found this manufacturer faq:

    Energizer Non-Rechargeable Batteries: Frequently Asked Questions Is it a good idea to store batteries in a refrigerator or freezer? No, storage in a refrigerator or freezer is not required or recommended for batteries produced today. Cold temperature storage can in fact harm batteries if condensation results in corroded contacts or label or seal damage due to extreme temperature storage



















  • I haven’t used them in Spark directly but here’s how they are used for computing sparse joins in a similar data processing framework:

    Let’s say you want to join some data “tables” A and B. When B has many more unique keys than are present in A, computing “A inner join B” would require lots of shuffling if B, including those extra keys.

    Knowing this, you can add a step before the join to compute a bloom filter of the keys in A, then apply the filter to B. Now the join from A to B-filtered only considers relevant keys from B, hopefully now with much less total computation than the original join.
