[jira] [Commented] (HAMA-531) Data re-partitioning in BSPJobClient

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAMA-531?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13526058#comment-13526058 ] 

Edward J. Yoon commented on HAMA-531:
-------------------------------------

I think the input partitioning issue should be handled at the BSP framework level. But, VertexInputReader hold back possibilities of integration. Since user can create their own InputFormatter, I don't think it's important feature.

Moreover, once partitioning-process separated from BSP computation, it will make able to specify desired number of tasks for graph job.

> The re-partitioning the data is a very expensive operation. By the way, currently, we processes read/write operations sequentially using HDFS api in BSPJobClient from client-side. This causes potential too many open files error, contains HDFS overheads, and shows slow performance.
> We have to find another way to re-partitioning data.
