From a code perspective the changes look fine to me. It would be nice to
possibly clean up the load aware grouping Interface some.
From a performance perspective it is a bit of a wash from what I am seeing.
I ran ThroughputVsLatency with 1 spout, 1 splitter, and 1 counter. I also
did the same with 2 splitters, so there was a choice to be made.
From a cost perspective I saw that for the 1 splitter case everything
appeared to be within the noise range. For the 2 splitter case I saw the new
version taking up about 5% more CPU than the old version, so I would like to
explore this a bit more.
Similarly for latency at the mean, 99%ile and 99.9%ile latency
measurements. The original one was slightly better, around 5%, when there were
2 splitters.
I do want to explore these a bit more, because it seams counter the
benchmarks that others have run.
