ASF GitHub Bot commented on STORM-1632: --------------------------------------- Github user ptgoetz commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/1217#issuecomment-200559629 I did a quick benchmark on a real cluster (albeit on a VMware cluster) and found that there was a throughput hit, but it was small -- about 0.4%. I'm okay with leaving the defaults as is, and documenting how to disable the feature. If there's a better solution, I'm okay with waiting for a post 1.0 release. > Disable event logging by default > -------------------------------- > > Key: STORM-1632 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-1632 > Project: Apache Storm > Issue Type: Bug > Components: storm-core > Reporter: Roshan Naik > Assignee: Roshan Naik > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 1.0.0 > > > EventLogging has performance penalty. For a simple speed of light topology > with a single instances of a spout and a bolt, disabling event logging > delivers a 7% to 9% perf improvement (with acker count =1) > Event logging can be enabled when there is need to do debug, but turned off > by default. > **Update:** with acker=0 the observed impact was much higher... **25%** > faster when event loggers = 0 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
