Peter Schuller commented on CASSANDRA-1508:
-------------------------------------------

To be honest I have not investigated (due to the nature of the crash there's no 
crashdump or anything to investigate stack trace). I believe it's a general 
issue with the JDK on the platform. Even just "java -Xss128k" (without running 
anything but trying to elicit help) crashes.

My suspicion is that it is simply something general having more to do with a 
non-default stack size, or some arbitrary minimum limit, rather than actually 
eating the stack in Java code. But it's speculation at this point.


> only attempt to set size on Linux (for portability)

> -Xss128k causes the JVM to refuse to start or crash on 64 bit FreeBSD 8 (this 
> goes for two wildly differing openjdk 1.6:es and for the current openjdk7 
> branch). Attaching patch to only pass -Xss on Linux.
> The motivation here is that out-of-the-box behavior is important for 
> first-comers, and for people in production on a non-Linux platform where 
> -Xss128k would work are presumably committed enough that they can tweak this 
> themselves.
