Moreover, the default backend (multiprocessing) can be overwritten.

Some context:
I've been experimenting to see if I can get scikit-learn to run on top of YARN. I don't want to add all the hdfs/yarn dependencies into this project, so I made a small change to the Parallel code such that I can now add a YARN backend to it easily.

Moreover, the default backend (multiprocessing) can be overwritten.

Hi! sklearn.externals.joblib is a direct backport of joblib. For this reason, changes to joblib should be proposed upstream directly, at https://github.com/joblib/joblib. Thanks!
