That's good :) The few seconds are because the CPE/CPM runs the CR in a separate thread than the AE, but the simple UIMA AS deplo

Re: Performance of CPE/CPM vs AS

Hi Marshall, Thanks for your reply. I should have included details of our machine. It has four CPUs each with 8 cores; here's the /proc/cpuinfo stanza for one of the cores: The machine has 64G RAM; I was running dstat at the same time as the AS pipeline, and it

Re: Performance of CPE/CPM vs AS

When looking at performance, it's important to get more details around the possibilities. For instance, is the machine your running on a multi-core machine (meaning it can run multiple threads at the same time, for increased performance), and if so, how many cores? The Intel i7 I think supports 8

Re: Performance of CPE/CPM vs AS

The CPE runs everything in the same process. UIMA AS could deploy this pipeline in one process and get the same performance as the CPE. Scaling out to multiple processes incurs overhead, which for UIMA AS essentially consists of CAS serialization and communication. Figure 5 on http://uima.apache.o

Performance of CPE/CPM vs AS

Thank you Jerry & Eddie for your responses to my previous questions. I appreciate the opportunity to learn. Based on a little testing, I'm starting to think that AS is not designed for performance-enhancing scale-out, but maybe rather for architectural clarity. I have a CPE that has a collecti

Re: Basic questions about UIMA AS deployment

Hi Chuck, Great questions. The major issue that makes UIMA AS somewhat hard to understand is that UIMA AS, although advertised as a scale out framework, is lacking life cycle management for processes. It has so far been focused on the details of interconnecting UIMA compliant components in multi-t

Re: Basic questions about UIMA AS deployment

Either of the two approaches will work. You can also embed the client side of the UIMA AS in your own application. There is description/example of how to do this in uima_async_scaleout.pdf on page 30. The basic building blocks are: 1) Broker 2) UIMA AS service ( deployed from deployment descriptor

Hi again, The problem was related to the broker -- clearing the ACTIVEMQ_BASE directory solved it. Thanks, ..meghana On 16 August 2011 09:27, Meghana wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm trying to deploy an aggregate AE as an AS. Running > deployAsyncService.sh seems to work fine (no error logs), but I
