I have a serialization question. As long as your tuple values are all primitive/built-in types (strings, byte arrays, longs, etc), is Java serialization only used at (re)build time (i.e., when the nimbus distributes the code of your topology to the supervisors, and when they create worker jvms)?
Another way of asking: will using a heavy library (e.g., guava or apache commons) in your trident functions (but not tuple types) incur a runtime overhead (other than when you lose a worker/supervisor)? -Cody -- Cody A. Ray, LEED AP cody.a....@gmail.com 215.501.7891
