I am comparing the total time spent in finishing the job. And What I am comparing, to be precise, is on a 48-core machine. I am comparing the performance of local[48] vs. standalone mode with 8 nodes of 6 cores each (totalling 48 cores) on localhost. In this comparison, the standalone mode outperforms local[48] substantially. When I did some troublshooting using oprofile, I found that local[48] was spending much more time in writeObject0 as compared to standalone mode.
I am running the PageRank example provided in the package. -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/Spilling-in-memory-messages-in-log-even-with-MEMORY-ONLY-tp10723p10743.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
