> While at ApacheCon I attended a talk about Cassandra. The developer
> mentioned using posix_fadvise to prevent linux from storing edit/write ahead
> log data in the page cache. This sounds great. Accumulo can do this for its
> write ahead logs.
> Using posix_fadvise was also mentioned for compactions, this is something
> Accumulo can not do because its compactions read and write to hdfs.
