Description

Some tools, such as Apache Spark, may need to serialize the DataProcessor to be able to send it to cluster nodes. Although we have the save/reload functions to support serialization, apache spark doesn't know how to use those, and just serializes the DataProcessor. So the SAPI/JAPI DataProcessors (which wrap the real DataProcessors) must also be made serializable.
