Hi Silvestre, An aggregate deployed with UIMA-AS can be used to run delegate annotators in parallel, with a few restrictions. - the aggregate must be deployed as async=true - the parallel delegates must each be running in remote processes - the delegates must not modify preexisting FS
As Jens suggests, the resultant latency improvement depends on the remoting overhead vs processing time. Latency will also be subject to the latency of the slowest parallel delegate. Remoting overhead can be reduced using the binary serialization option, but then all services must have identical typesystems.
