> When testing current spark master (1.3.0-snapshot) with spark-perf (sort-by-key, aggregate-by-key, etc), Netty based shuffle transferService takes much longer time than NIO based shuffle transferService. The network throughput of Netty is only about half of that of NIO. 
> We tested with standalone mode, and the data set we used for test is 20 billion records, and the total size is about 400GB. Spark-perf test is Running on a 4 node cluster with 10G NIC, 48 cpu cores per node and each executor memory is 64GB. The reduce tasks number is set to 1000.

> Reynold update on Dec 15, 2014: The problem is that in NIO we have multiple connections between two nodes, but in Netty we only had one. We introduced a new config option spark.shuffle.io.numConnectionsPerPeer to allow users to explicitly increase the number of connections between two nodes. SPARK-4853 is a follow-up ticket to investigate setting this automatically by Spark.
