I gave a well received talk on Gearman at the Italian Perl Workshop a few days ago. One of the questions from the audience was this: When a client sends a task request and provides a large chunk of data to be processed, does the data travel from client to server and to server to worker, or does the server somehow establish a communication channel between client and worker to minimize traffic?
Example: gearman -w -f wordcount wc gearman -f wordcount < hugefile Does the content of hugefile travel from the client to the server and then from the server to the worker?
