I spent a day pair-programming with Joey Gonzalez and improved
performance by 10X. Not bad for a day of work!
I spent a day pair-programming with Joey Gonzalez and improved
performance by 10X. but I later found out that it is still 10X slower than the latest version of GraphLab :(
A lot of open questions for fault- tolerant, distributed graph
computation. “MapReduce”? Data partitioning? Fault-tolerance? Asynchrony?
