<i>I saw a presentation from a company named parallel machines, they claim x800 faster than Spark performance on pagerank, and you know what, working with GraphX</i><p>800 times faster or 800%? 800% (ie, 8 times) is believable, but I&#x27;d need a lot of convincing if they are claiming 800 times.<p>Frank McSherry&#x27;s work on graph computation is pretty good, and he get&#x27;s 16 times speed up over Spark[1]. Maybe if they are claiming 800 times less resource usage or something?<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.frankmcsherry.org&#x2F;pagerank&#x2F;distributed&#x2F;performance&#x2F;2015&#x2F;07&#x2F;08&#x2F;pagerank.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.frankmcsherry.org&#x2F;pagerank&#x2F;distributed&#x2F;performanc...</a>
