Carl Yeksigian commented on CASSANDRA-9830: ------------------------------------------- A new run just finished, and the results look much more like what we would have expected. Once you have finished adding support for the major LCS compaction skipping bloom filters, we should add the {{compact}} step back in and check the results again, otherwise it looks like this patch is having the desired effects of reducing memory usage while not reducing performance. * blade-11-2a ** trunk {noformat} SSTable count: 26 SSTables in each level: [0, 10, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Space used (live): 4666235284 Space used (total): 4666235284 Bloom filter false positives: 69 Bloom filter false ratio: 0.00000 Bloom filter space used: 99436392 Bloom filter off heap memory used: 99436184 {noformat} ** skip_top_level_bloom_filter {noformat} SSTable count: 26 SSTables in each level: [0, 10, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Space used (live): 4388657699 Space used (total): 4388657699 Bloom filter false positives: 586 Bloom filter false ratio: 0.00002 Bloom filter space used: 51519600 Bloom filter off heap memory used: 51519520 {noformat} * blade-11-3a ** trunk {noformat} SSTable count: 26 SSTables in each level: [0, 10, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Space used (live): 4666224073 Space used (total): 4666224073 Bloom filter false positives: 51 Bloom filter false ratio: 0.00000 Bloom filter space used: 99436568 Bloom filter off heap memory used: 99436360 {noformat} ** skip_top_level_bloom_filter {noformat} SSTable count: 26 SSTables in each level: [0, 10, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Space used (live): 4394200299 Space used (total): 4394200299 Bloom filter false positives: 636 Bloom filter false ratio: 0.00002 Bloom filter space used: 51392880 Bloom filter off heap memory used: 51392800 {noformat} * blade-11-4a ** trunk {noformat} SSTable count: 26 SSTables in each level: [0, 10, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Space used (live): 4590486878 Space used (total): 4590486878 Bloom filter false positives: 55 Bloom filter false ratio: 0.00000 Bloom filter space used: 58160752 Bloom filter off heap memory used: 58160544 {noformat} ** skip_top_level_bloom_filter {noformat} SSTable count: 26 SSTables in each level: [0, 10, 16, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] Space used (live): 4388596350 Space used (total): 4388596350 Bloom filter false positives: 560 Bloom filter false ratio: 0.00002 Bloom filter space used: 51519600 Bloom filter off heap memory used: 51519520 {noformat} > Option to disable bloom filter in highest level of LCS sstables > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-9830 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9830 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Compaction > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: Paulo Motta > Priority: Minor > Labels: performance > Fix For: 3.x > > > We expect about 90% of data to be in the highest level of LCS in a fully > populated series. (See also CASSANDRA-9829.) > Thus if the user is primarily asking for data (partitions) that has actually > been inserted, the bloom filter on the highest level only helps reject > sstables about 10% of the time. > We should add an option that suppresses bloom filter creation on top-level > sstables. This will dramatically reduce memory usage for LCS and may even > improve performance as we no longer check a low-value filter. > (This is also an idea from RocksDB.) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
