Thomas Jungblut commented on HAMA-559:
--------------------------------------
We don't even have to put it into our trunk, the queues are designed that way
that you can add a new jar into the lib folder on each host and it can pick
that up.
Apurv is working on github with it anyway, so he can share a little instruction
and pass a jar on that.
If we want to decide to add this because it is superior we can add this to
contrib or even our trunk (contrib is actually in trunk anyways).
> Add a spilling message queue
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: HAMA-559
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAMA-559
> Project: Hama
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: bsp core
> Affects Versions: 0.5.0
> Reporter: Thomas Jungblut
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 0.6.0
>
>
> After HAMA-521 is done, we can add a spilling queue which just holds the
> messages in RAM that fit into the heap space. The rest can be flushed to disk.
> We may call this a HybridQueue or something like that.
> The benefits should be that we don't have to flush to disk so often and get
> faster. However we may have more GC so it is always overall faster.
> The requirements for this queue also include:
> - The message object once written to the queue (after returning from the
> write call) could be modified, but the changes should not be reflected in the
> messages stored in the queue.
> - For now let's implement a queue that does not support concurrent reading
> and writing. This feature is needed when we implement asynchronous
> communication.
