--------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Improve Distributed Hogwild

> Key: SINGA-57
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SINGA-57
> Project: Singa
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: wangwei
>
> The implementation SINGA-8 of distributed Hogwild uses the stub thread to
> monitor the network bandwidth. When the network has >0 bandwidth, the stub
> sends a sync reminder msg to a server, which would trigger the server to sync
> one param slice with other server groups.
> The code is messy due to the monitoring of network bandwidth and processing
> the sync reminder message. Another problem is that the reminder message may
> not be generated frequently. Because it is generated only when the router
> times out. If the worker and server run very fast that the router rarely
> times out, then the sync reminder message cannot be sent. In contrast, if the
> router times out frequently, many reminder messages would be generated.
> This ticket improves the implementation by fixing the frequency of
> synchronization between server groups. A server sends a sync message for a
> Param (slice) for every sync_freq updates to the server group that
> masters/maintains the Param.
