Hi,
I want to send and receive my own application messages using the Pastry overlay. To do that I use the method route(PastryKey key, Message msg, PastryContact hint) implemented in the PastryNode class. However, the simulation takes a very long time due to hundreds of thousands of operations being created. Compared to other overlays like Chord (which also implements the route method in the class AbstractChordNode) the amount of operations created is ridiculous high. You can reproduce the problem by using the filesharing application and using the KBRHandler instead of the DHTHandler for Pastry.
Is there a reason, why using routing in Pastry is that slow?
Thanks and regards,
Philipp
