T Jake Luciani commented on CASSANDRA-10031: -------------------------------------------- The idea is to get a snapshot on what is happening without firing up a profiler. The debug log ticket CASSANDRA-10241 may already do this so I'm happy to not go crazy but I do think there is value in at least high-level mapping of thread name to what thread is doing. > Name threads for improved ops/debugging > --------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-10031 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10031 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: T Jake Luciani > Priority: Minor > Labels: lhf > Fix For: 3.x > > > We currently provide basic names for threads in threads like {{STREAM-IN-1}} > which gives some basic information about what the job of the thread is. > When looking at a log statement or jstack it's helpful to have this context. > For our work stealing thread pool we share threads across all thread pools so > we lose this insight. > I'd like to propose we start using the Thread.currentThread().setName("") > In different aspects of the code to improve insight as to what cassandra is > doing at any given moment. > * At a minimum in the start of each run() method. > Ideally for much finer grain things. > * In compaction include the partition name currently being working on. > * In SP include the client ip > Etc... -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
