<tr>
<td>spark.akka.pauses</td>
<td>60</td>
<td>
Acceptable heart beat pause in seconds for akka, tune this if you expect GC pauses or network delays (reconnections) etc.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>spark.akka.failure-detector.threshold</td>
<td>12.0</td>
<td>
Tuning this is not recommended unless you are sure what you are doing. This maps to akka's `akka.remote.transport-failure-detector.threshold`. Usually having a larger value of `spark.akka.pauses` should suffice.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>spark.akka.heartbeat.interval</td>
<td>5</td>
<td>
A larger interval value in seconds reduces network overhead and a smaller value might be more informative for akka's failure detector. Tune this in combination of `spark.akka.pauses` and `spark.akka.failure-detector.threshold` if you need to.
