pyspider分布式爬取的设置

我写了一个爬虫，想使用pyspider把它的爬取过程分布到两台机器1和2上，但发现这样爬取一轮所花费的时间和单机几乎没有区别，都是5分16秒左右，我不知道该怎么改进才能使分布式的时间优于单机的时间．

机器规格：
机器1：1个scheduler，1个fetcher，1个processor，1个result_worker，1个webui
机器2：1个fetcher，1个processor，1个result_worker

爬虫特点：
rate/burst是20.0/3.0(试过100.0/3.0，结果几乎没有区别)；
on_start设的是@every(seconds=60*60)，on_start内大概发75个请求，每个请求都调用回调方法1；
回调方法1设的是@config(age=1)，里面发一个请求，调用回调方法2；
回调方法2设的是@config(age=1)，里面写一次文件；

爬虫代码：

1. 增加 burst 不小于 rate，burst 过小会导致在一个 schduler 调度循环中，由于水槽过小，只能分配到 3 个请求配额。

2. dashboard 上各个队列的状态，增加堵塞的队列下游的对应模块数量。
