Hi. Just wondering if someone have found some good Linux settings for I|O intensive workload with Hadoop.
Since most usecases with Hadoop is I|O-bound and since it uses the network frequently I guess that the tcp buffers and kernel buffers should be tweaked. (Even with CPU-bound load). I as well guess that you should choose an I|O scheduler like deadline or perhaps cfq. We will use many of the tricks found here: http://www.gluster.org/docs/index.php/Guide_to_Optimizing_GlusterFS Kindly //Marcus -- Marcus Herou CTO and co-founder Tailsweep AB +46702561312 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tailsweep.com/ http://blogg.tailsweep.com/
