Network Instance Questions #80

Closed bosslabdcu closed 3 years ago

bosslabdcu commented 3 years ago

Hello, I am a student who is using laikaboss

I have a question about network instances and distributed processing.

As far as I'm concerned, According to the white paper, laikaboss has brokers and walkers, which makes it faster.

If what I understand is correct, the more walkers, the faster the file scanning should be. However, the more walkers there are, the slower it seems.

Do you happen to know the solution?

The composition of my experiment is as follows.

broker: ./laikad.py --broker-frontend=tcp://:5558 --broker-backend=tcp://:5559 --worker-connect=tcp://localhost:5559 -p 8

Client: ./cloudscan.py ~/FILE PATH/ -R -r -a tcp://"brokerIP:5559"

worker1: ./laikad.py --no-broker --worker-connect=tcp://brokerIP:5559 -a -p 8 worker2: ./laikad.py --no-broker --worker-connect=tcp://brokerIP:5559 -a -p 8 worker3: ./laikad.py --no-broker --worker-connect=tcp://brokerIP:5559 -a -p 8

Thank you.

There really isn't enough context here about the underlying systems you're running this on.

Also, LaikaBOSS is basically abandonware now 😢 . Try out Target/Strelka, which is ostensibly a fork.
