[jira] [Resolved] (SPARK-17951) BlockFetch with multiple threads slows down after spark 1.6

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17951?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sean Owen resolved SPARK-17951.
-------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

This does not show a slow-down in an actual Spark operation though, and doesn't show a significant change anyway. To proceed, you'd want to show that calling a user-facing API is significantly slower, and ideally, with some profiling details that suggests why or what is slow.

>                 Key: SPARK-17951
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17951
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Block Manager, Spark Core
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.2
>         Environment: cluster with 8 node, each node has 28 cores. 10Gb network
>            Reporter: ding
>
> The following code demonstrates the issue:
> {code}
> def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
>     val conf = new SparkConf().setAppName(s"BMTest")
>     val size = 3344570
>     val sc = new SparkContext(conf)
>     val data = sc.parallelize(1 to 100, 8)
>     var accum = sc.accumulator(0.0, "get remote bytes")
>     var i = 0
>     while(i < 91) {
>       accum = sc.accumulator(0.0, "get remote bytes")
>       val test = data.mapPartitionsWithIndex { (pid, iter) =>
>         val N = size
>         val bm = SparkEnv.get.blockManager
>         val blockId = TaskResultBlockId(10*i + pid)        
>         val test = new Array[Byte](N)
>         Random.nextBytes(test)
>         val buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(N)
>         buffer.limit(N)
>         buffer.put(test)
>         bm.putBytes(blockId, buffer, StorageLevel.MEMORY_ONLY_SER)        
>         Iterator(1)
>       }.count()
>       
>       data.mapPartitionsWithIndex { (pid, iter) =>
>         val before = System.nanoTime()
>         
>         val bm = SparkEnv.get.blockManager
>         (0 to 7).map(s => {
>           Future {
>             val result = bm.getRemoteBytes(TaskResultBlockId(10*i + s))
>           }
>         }).map(Await.result(_, Duration.Inf))
>         
>         accum.add((System.nanoTime() - before) / 1e9)
>         Iterator(1)
>       }.count()
>       println("get remote bytes take: " + accum.value/8)
>       i += 1
>     }        
>   }
> {code}
> In spark1.6.2, average of "getting remote bytes" time is: 0.19 s while
> in spark 1.5.1 average of "getting remote bytes" time is: 0.09 s
> However if fetch block in single thread, the gap is much smaller.
> spark1.6.2  get remote bytes: 0.21 s
> spark1.5.1  get remote bytes: 0.20 s
