> While doing some performance tuning I discovered that loading byte array partitions was performing slower than expected. I found that the extra time was being spent allocating a new vertex object for each distinct vertexId encountered (because vertexId object is the map key). Similar to GIRAPH-704, the use of primitive maps can provide significant performance benefit in this situation. By using a primitive map, the vertex object on the VertexIterator can be reused perpetually because the vertexId object isn't used as the map key.
> When processing a large graph with 4B vertices the worker vertices requests were taking ~15 seconds each, but after implementing the above suggestion that number dropped down sub-second.
