Akka clustering is built on top of akka remoting. The default serialization used by remoting is terribly slow. Look into swapping it out with a third party serializer. There are some linked/mentioned in the remoting docs.
Please post any results if a serializer change helps you. I know in my project a 200k/sec spray http server gets 5k/s out of the default remoting layer. Fortunately 5k is good enough for that service, so I haven't messed with the serializer. Others have had good luck and Kryo seems popular. -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
