Hama task on multiple cores
Hi,
I am trying to do some performance comparisons between MATLAB and HAMA
implementation of same thing. MATLAB provides some functions to do parallel
execution on multiple cores.
Hama is already parallel but I do not understand the relation between Hama
tasks and cores on a computer.
For example, if I have a machine with 4 cores and I want to open up 4 Hama
tasks, where will Hama open them ? Each task on each core ?
Or If I have 4 cores but I have 10 tasks, how the tasks will be distributed
on cores ?
Regards,
Behroz Sikander

Hi,

*uses multicores.*
Ok

*mode (multi-threading). :-)*
Ok I think I will go with this solution.
Thanks :)

Hello,
Hama framework spawns one JVM for each task. So, it depends on whether JVM
uses multicores.
If you wanna benchmark on single machine, I recommend you to use Hama local
mode (multi-threading). :-)
