------------------------------------
Jake,
Thank you for your help :)
While I'm trying finagle, I will ask you if I have any questions.
Sooner I'll upload git branch with my test code :)
> Investigate communication improvements
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: GIRAPH-12
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GIRAPH-12
> Project: Giraph
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Avery Ching
> Assignee: Hyunsik Choi
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently every worker will start up a thread to communicate with every other
> workers. Hadoop RPC is used for communication. For instance if there are
> 400 workers, each worker will create 400 threads. This ends up using a lot
> of memory, even with the option
> -Dmapred.child.java.opts="-Xss64k".
> It would be good to investigate using frameworks like Netty or custom roll
> our own to improve this situation. By moving away from Hadoop RPC, we would
> also make compatibility of different Hadoop versions easier.
