I wrote the Initialize counter :) Please tell me if the name seems confusing So,Initialize = the time spent by job waiting for resources. In a shared pool the job you launch may not get all the machines needed to start the job. So for instance you want to run a job with 200 workers, giraph does not start until all the workers have are allocated & register with the master. Setup = once you have all the machines allocated, how much time it takes before starting to read input Shutdown = once you have written your output howmuch time it takes to stop verify that everything is done & shutdown resources & notify user - for instance wait for all network connections to close, all threads to join, etc. Total = sum of input time + sum of time in all superstepsi.e., actual time taken to run by your application after it got all the resources (does not include time waiting to get resources which is initialize or shutdown time)

From: ghufran1ma...@gmail.com To: user@giraph.apache.org Hi, Could you also explain what the following timers correspond to as well please: Giraph Timers Initialize (ms)=775 Setup (ms)=105 Shutdown (ms)=12537 Total (ms)=27075 Thanks, Ghufran On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 9:10 PM, Pavan Kumar A <pava...@outlook.com> wrote: Input consists of > reading the input (vertices and/or edges as provided) into memory on individual workers> assigning vertices to partitions and partitions to workers > moving all partitions (i.e., vertices & their out-edges) to a worker (which > owns the partition)> doing some bookkeeping of internal data-structures to be > used during computation Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2014 10:06:03 -0500 Subject: input superstep of giraph. From: suijian.z...@gmail.com To: user@giraph.apache.org Hi, From the screen output of a successful giraph program run, what does the following line mean? Input superstep (ms)=22884 Does it mean the time used to load the input graph into memory? Thanks. Best Regards, Suijian
