Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-7438: ----------------------------------------- OHC works in Cassandra: * unit tests pass ({{ant test}}, not difference against trunk) * get and put verified in debugger and a (simple) table * row cache saving and load working, too > Serializing Row cache alternative (Fully off heap) > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-7438 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7438 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Environment: Linux > Reporter: Vijay > Assignee: Robert Stupp > Labels: performance > Fix For: 3.0 > > Attachments: 0001-CASSANDRA-7438.patch, tests.zip > > > Currently SerializingCache is partially off heap, keys are still stored in > JVM heap as BB, > * There is a higher GC costs for a reasonably big cache. > * Some users have used the row cache efficiently in production for better > results, but this requires careful tunning. > * Overhead in Memory for the cache entries are relatively high. > So the proposal for this ticket is to move the LRU cache logic completely off > heap and use JNI to interact with cache. We might want to ensure that the new > implementation match the existing API's (ICache), and the implementation > needs to have safe memory access, low overhead in memory and less memcpy's > (As much as possible). > We might also want to make this cache configurable. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
