What Hacker News says?
Hello, Daft developer here! The network indeed becomes the bottleneck. In 2 main ways: 1. Reading data from cloud storage is very expensive. Here’s a blogpost where we talk about some of the optimizations we’ve done in that area: https://blog.getdaft.io/p/announcing-daft-02-10x-faster-io 2. During a global shuffle stage (e.g. sorts, joins, aggregations) network transfer of data between nodes becomes the bottleneck.…
