Ok, i understand what is happening now.

I starting to use more compute threads, because i believed that the problem
was scalability. I started the application again, using :
giraph.numComputeThreads=15 (r3.8xlarge has 32 cores)
giraph.userPartitionCount=240 (4 for each computing thread)

The application gets stuck on only one thread, and only in one partition.
In this partition, i'm doing a small processing of each message. I have to
add the vertex id to the end of each message, in order to have the result
for the Output of that vertex.

The problem here remains in that small process of each message is taking to
long, and i have the entire cluster waiting for it. I Know that there are
other tecnologies por post-processing results, maybe i should use one of
them?

Bye!
Jose
