> There has been some talk about Giraph's scaling limitations due to keeping
> the whole graph and messages in RAM.
> We need to investigate methods to fall back to disk when running out of
> memory, while gracefully degrading performance.
> This issue is for graph storage. Messages should probably be a separate
> issue, although the interplay between the two is crucial.
> We should also discuss what are our primary goals here: completing a job
> (albeit slowly) instead of failing when the graph is too big, while still
> encouraging memory optimizations and high-memory clusters; or restructuring
> Giraph to be as efficient as possible in disk mode, making it almost a
> standard way of operating.
