Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-9318: ------------------------------------------- (Re: hints still being best effort -- yes, there are reasons why hints might not be replayed, but that is not the same as not being written in the first place [when a timeout is returned] which is what I was talking about.) > Bound the number of in-flight requests at the coordinator > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-9318 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9318 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Ariel Weisberg > Assignee: Ariel Weisberg > Fix For: 2.1.x, 2.2.x > > > It's possible to somewhat bound the amount of load accepted into the cluster > by bounding the number of in-flight requests and request bytes. > An implementation might do something like track the number of outstanding > bytes and requests and if it reaches a high watermark disable read on client > connections until it goes back below some low watermark. > Need to make sure that disabling read on the client connection won't > introduce other issues. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
