Summary: Compaction running indefinitely on system.hints Key: CASSANDRA-10285 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10285 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Alan Boudreault During my hints storage benchmarks, I've experienced an issue using C* 2.2. The hints was never replayed. After a while (more than 24H ...), I noticed that there were still compactions running on system.hints and that some new ones was triggered every 10-20 minutes. To reproduce, we create a cluster of 2 nodes. RF=2 and we generate hints by shutting down the node2. {code} ccm create --install-dir=`pwd` -n 2 local && ccm start ccm node1 stress -- write n=50M -rate threads=300 -port jmx=7198 -errors ignore -schema replication\(factor=2\) # wait 5-6 seconds to get the schema creation propagated on all nodes, then in another window, stop node 2 ccm node2 stop # wait the initial 50M writes are finished, bring back node2 up and write another 50M keys. ccm node2 start ccm node1 stress -- write n=50M -rate threads=300 -port jmx=7198 -errors ignore -schema replication\(factor=2\) # You should get the initial compaction finished after 15-20 minutes. You can set the mb throughput to 0 to get that done faster. # Monitor the node1. the hints will never be replayed and you should see compactions happening indefinitely. {code} //cc [~krummas] [~yukim] -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
