Description
Searching through the source for `DistributedArray`, it seems I'm supposed to use `map` instead of `pmap` on a `DArray`. Indeed, when I try to use `pmap`, strange things happen:
```

(Sorry for how long that was!)
Yet intuitively, I would have expected `pmap` to work like `map` does on a distributed array. I'm fine with my intuition being wrong here, but should there be a note in the documentation to use `map`, and not `pmap`? What is the expected behaviour of `pmap` on a `DArray`?
