Andrzej Bialecki commented on NUTCH-339:
-----------------------------------------
Well, then this version doesn't work correctly - the "performance improvement"
you see is a result of violating robots.xt and politeness settings.
> Refactor nutch to allow fetcher improvements
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NUTCH-339
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-339
> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: fetcher
> Affects Versions: 0.8
> Environment: n/a
> Reporter: Sami Siren
> Assigned To: Andrzej Bialecki
> Fix For: 0.9.0
>
> Attachments: Fetcher2 for .81, patch.txt, patch2.txt, patch3.txt,
> patch4-fixed.txt, patch4-trunk.txt
>
>
> As I (and Stefan?) see it there are two major areas the current fetcher could
> be
> improved (as in speed)
> 1. Politeness code and how it is implemented is the biggest
> problem of current fetcher(together with robots.txt handling).
> With a simple code changes like replacing it with a PriorityQueue
> based solution showed very promising results in increased IO.
> 2. Changing fetcher to use non blocking io (this requires great amount
> of work as we need to implement the protocols from scratch again).
> I would like to start with working towards #1 by first refactoring
> the current code (plugins actually) in following way:
> 1. Move robots.txt handling away from (lib-http)plugin.
> Even if this is related only to http, leaving it to lib-http
> does not allow other kinds of scheduling strategies to be implemented
> (it is hardcoded to fetch robots.txt from the same thread when requesting
> a page from a site from witch it hasn't tried to load robots.txt)
> 2. Move code for politeness away from (lib-http)plugin
> It is really usable outside http and also the current design limits
> changing of the implementation (to queue based)
> Where to move these, well my suggestion is the nutch core, does anybody
> see problems with this?
> These code refactoring activities are to be done in a way that none
> of the current functionality is (at least deliberately) changed leaving
> current functionality as is thus leaving room and possibility to build
> the next generation fetcher(s) without destroying the old one at same time.
