Adam Holmberg commented on CASSANDRA-11053:
-------------------------------------------
A few comments on review:
It is not clear to me why we're using deque+Event and not a
[Queue|https://docs.python.org/2/library/queue.html].
We may want to
[daemonize|https://docs.python.org/2/library/threading.html#threading.Thread.daemon]
the feeder thread to avoid hanging on exit while the thread continues forever.
Are there any recoverable exceptions that would warrant exception handling in
that thread body?
> COPY FROM on large datasets: fix progress report and debug performance

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Tools

> Labels: doc-impacting

> h5. Description
> Running COPY from on a large dataset (20G divided in 20M records) revealed
> two issues:
> * The progress report is incorrect, it is very slow until almost the end of
> the test at which point it catches up extremely quickly.
> * The performance in rows per second is similar to running smaller tests with
> a smaller cluster locally (approx 35,000 rows per second). As a comparison,
> cassandra-stress manages 50,000 rows per second under the same set-up,
> therefore resulting 1.5 times faster.
> See attached file _copy_from_large_benchmark.txt_ for the benchmark details.
> h5. Doc-impacting changes to COPY FROM options
> * A new option was added: PREPAREDSTATEMENTS - it indicates if prepared
> statements should be used; it defaults to true.
> * The default value of CHUNKSIZE changed from 1000 to 5000.
> * The default value of MINBATCHSIZE changed from 2 to 10.
