Sylvain Lebresne updated CASSANDRA-8969: ---------------------------------------- Attachment: 8969.txt Attaching a patch that describe with a bit more detail what the rpc timeouts are useful for (and hence why you don't want to set them too high). When you mention memory building up, I assume it's a reference to reads going on for too long reading tons of stuffs? In which case I'll note that before CASSANDRA-7392 the rpc timeouts weren't really helping with that, and so the attached patch is really only meant for trunk (it's partly false for earlier releases). > Add indication in cassandra.yaml that rpc timeouts going too high will cause > memory build up > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-8969 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8969 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Configuration > Reporter: Jeremy Hanna > Assignee: Jeremy Hanna > Priority: Minor > Labels: lhf > Fix For: 3.x > > Attachments: 8969.txt > > > It would be helpful to communicate that setting the rpc timeouts too high may > cause memory problems on the server as it can become overloaded and has to > retain the in flight requests in memory. I'll get this done but just adding > the ticket as a placeholder for memory. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
