Summary: Index: index can significantly slow down boot Key: CASSANDRA-12969 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12969 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Reporter: Corentin Chary Attachments: 0004-index-do-not-re-insert-values-in-IndexInfo.patch During startup, each existing index is opened and marked as built by adding an entry in "IndexInfo" and forcing a flush. Because of that we end up flushing one sstable per index. On systems on HDD this can take minutes for nothing. Thw following patch allows to avoid creating useless new sstables if the index was already marked as built and will greatly reduce the startup time (and improve availability during restarts). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
