Add graphite sink for metrics
This adds a metrics sink for graphite. The sink must
be configured with the host and port of a graphite node
and optionally may be configured with a prefix that will
be prepended to all metrics that are sent to graphite.
XORShift RNG with unit tests and benchmark
This patch was introduced to address SPARK-950 - the discussion below the ticket explains not only the rationale, but also the design and testing decisions: https://spark-project.atlassian.net/browse/SPARK-950
To run unit test, start SBT console and type:
compile
test-only org.apache.spark.util.XORShiftRandomSuite
To run benchmark, type:
project core
console
Once the Scala console starts, type:
org.apache.spark.util.XORShiftRandom.benchmark(100000000)
XORShiftRandom is also an object with a main method taking the
number of iterations as an argument, so you can also run it
from the command line.
Fix 'timeWriting' stat for shuffle files
Due to concurrent git branches, changes from shuffle file consolidation patch
caused the shuffle write timing patch to no longer actually measure the time,
since it requires time be measured after the stream has been closed.
AppendOnlyMap fixes
- Chose a more random reshuffling step for values returned by Object.hashCode to avoid some long chaining that was happening for consecutive integers (e.g. `sc.makeRDD(1 to 100000000, 100).map(t => (t, t)).reduceByKey(_ + _).count`)
- Some other small optimizations throughout (see commit comments)
- Don't check keys for equality when re-inserting due to growing the
table; the keys will already be unique
- Remember the grow threshold instead of recomputing it on each insert
- Use Murmur Hash 3 finalization step to scramble the bits of HashCode
instead of the simpler version in java.util.HashMap; the latter one
had trouble with ranges of consecutive integers. Murmur Hash 3 is used
by fastutil.
- Use Object.equals() instead of Scala's == to compare keys, because the
latter does extra casts for numeric types (see the equals method in
https://github.com/scala/scala/blob/master/src/library/scala/runtime/BoxesRunTime.java)
Support preservesPartitioning in RDD.zipPartitions
In `RDD.zipPartitions`, add support for a `preservesPartitioning` option (similar to `RDD.mapPartitions`) that reuses the first RDD's partitioner.
