PigPaxos: Removing the Scalability Bottlenecks in Paxos
Interesting idea moving the reception of messages to other nodes and getting back smaller set of messages. Not only that but distributing the reception responsibility into relay groups where it can be load balanced among peers.<p>The leader using relay nodes reminds me of how humans organize into boss and worker groups and the boss shouts out orders to group leaders.<p>I would like to see how dynamic relay groups will perform under stress and I wonder who would communicate new relay groups. Choice of leader imposing relay group structure or groups self organizing.
