Avery Ching commented on GIRAPH-282:
------------------------------------
Are there any examples of anyone here who is still running HadoopRPC instead of
Netty solely due to security reasons?
Frankly, there are other security holes mentioned by Eugene in GIRAPH-211 (i.e.
ZooKeeper). I expect that we'll work through those issues when someone has
time to get to them. Does this really need to block us from moving forward in
the meantime?
We are holding up great code improvements (i.e. GIRAPH-200) and piling up cruft
(see GIRAPH-45 if blocks on netty vs HadoopRPC). Is there truly a great reason
for this?

>
> Currently we use Hadoop RPC as our means of communication amongst BSP
> workers, but we would like to transition to Netty for its better performance.
> This would require making security work by emulating Hadoop RPC's security
> features. See GIRAPH-211.
> The fix for this is present in Avery's GIRAPH-262 patch, so we need to simply
> break it out into a separate patch.
