cff-version: 1.2.0 abstract: "This dataset contains the measurements obtained with Apache Spark using different strategies for adapting the number of executor threads to reduce I/O contention. The two main strategies explored are a static solution (number of executor threads for I/O intensive tasks pre-determined) and a dynamic solution that employs an active control loop to measure epoll_wait time." authors: - family-names: Omranian Khorasani given-names: S.
