Matthew F. Dennis updated CASSANDRA-2148: ----------------------------------------- Attachment: (was: 2148-cassandra-0.7.txt) > system CFs default to large memtable throughputs on large heaps > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-2148 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2148 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.7.0 > Reporter: Matthew F. Dennis > Assignee: Matthew F. Dennis > Fix For: 0.7.2 > > Attachments: 2148-cassandra-0.7.txt > > > The default memtableThroughputInMB is calculated now based on the heap size. > Most people running with a large heap in production explicitly set it for > their memtable(s). However, the the CFs in the system keyspace still default > to the calculated value which on a large heap can be quite large. > HintsColumnFamily is really the only problematic one though as the others are > flushed afters changes to them. > we should: > 1) set the throughput on the hints CF to a reasonable max and min value - > min(256, max(32, normalDefault/2)) > 2) set the throughput on the other system CFs to some small constant value > (just as a safety); 8M sounds good -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
