Eli Reisman commented on GIRAPH-273: ------------------------------------ I like the master connection, in-memory option. Avery is right, memory pressure on the master is low since it doesn't do much work during the super steps. This sounds like a great plan, and should be fairly quick in the super steps too. The aggregation tree is a great idea because we can piggyback aggregation connections on existing worker connections for many levels up the tree and hopefully only 2 workers will actually ever need to add extra connections to talk to the master. > Aggregators shouldn't use Zookeeper > ----------------------------------- > > Key: GIRAPH-273 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GIRAPH-273 > Project: Giraph > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Maja Kabiljo > Assignee: Maja Kabiljo > > We use Zookeeper znodes to transfer aggregated values from workers to master > and back. Zookeeper is supposed to be used for coordination, and it also has > a memory limit which prevents users from having aggregators with large value > objects. These are the reasons why we should implement aggregators gathering > and distribution in a different way. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
