longliveenduro commented on issue #482: [PIO-182] Add async methods to
LEventStore
URL: https://github.com/apache/predictionio/pull/482#issuecomment-432965202
@takezoe The scaladoc is clear I think.
But after some days of letting this settle and also reading this excellent
blog:
https://www.beyondthelines.net/computing/scala-future-and-execution-context/
I am not sure if it is really a good idea to use the "standard" Scala
Execution Context for the "old blocking" code. Another idea would we (like
proposed in the Blog) use a separate Thread pool, make the defaults the same as
now (or maybe raise the allowed thread count to bypass/hack the problem from
now on a bit for usages of the old code) and make the size of the thread pool
configurable like the standard scala thread pool.
For example this blog suggests that a FixedThreadPool for blocking purposes
might be a good idea:

> Add asynchronous (non-blocking) methods to LEventStore
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIO-182
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIO-182
> Project: PredictionIO
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0
> Reporter: Naoki Takezoe
> Assignee: Naoki Takezoe
> Priority: Major
>
> The current implementation of {{LEventStore}} has only synchronous (blocking)
> methods. Since they use {{ExecutionContext.Implicit.global}}, its parallelism
> is limited up to the number of processors. This means engine server's
> parallelism is also limited if we use these methods in prediction logic.
> To solve this problem, {{Future}} version of these methods should be added to
> {{LEventStore}} and also current blocking methods should be modified to take
> {{ExecutionContext}} (as an implicit parameter).
