Hello !
I have read through the Paper "The ganglia distributed monitoring
system..." (Massie, Chun, Culler) from 2004 and found lots of
extremely valuable information.
I am concerned about the virtual memory utilization by gmond /
gmetad based on data provided by the paper. However, the paper also
hints at Ganglia design flaws, e.g. using more threads than necessary,
and proposes alternatives like I/O multiplexing or reducing the
thread stack size.
My questions:
(01) Is the data provided by this excellent paper still
up to date or are the number different (better) ?
(02) Have the design issues been resolved in the meantime ?
Many thanks,
Matthias
