Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-9640:
-------------------------------------------
How large are the cells in these partitions? Can you attach cfstats?
> Nodetool repair of very wide, large rows causes GC pressure and
> destabilization

> Key: CASSANDRA-9640
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9640
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: AWS, ~8GB heap
> Reporter: Constance Eustace
> Assignee: Yuki Morishita
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.1.x
>
> Attachments: syslog.zip
>
>
> We've noticed our nodes becoming unstable with large, unrecoverable Old Gen
> GCs until OOM.
> This appears to be around the time of repair, and the specific cause seems to
> be one of our report computation tables that involves possible very wide rows
> with 10GB of data in it. THis is an RF 3 table in a four-node cluster.
> We truncate this occasionally, and we also had disabled this computation
> report for a bit and noticed better node stabiliy.
> I wish I had more specifics. We are switching to an RF 1 table and do more
> proactive truncation of the table.
> When things calm down, we will attempt to replicate the issue and watch GC
> and other logs.
> Any suggestion for things to look for/enable tracing on would be welcome.
