Practicing caching: the SQL
Previously, we examined two DataFrames: df1 and df2 (which is created from df1). We tried caching df1, but not df2. In this exercise, we'll examine the effects of caching df2, but not df1.
Once again, note the amount of time that each action takes. We'll be comparing these in the next exercise. Which tasks are sped up? Which are slowed down?
