Jeff Jirsa commented on CASSANDRA-13290: ---------------------------------------- See also CASSANDRA-8911 > Optimizing very small repair streams > ------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-13290 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13290 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Benjamin Roth > > I often encountered repair scenarios, where a lot of tiny repair streams were > created. This results in hundrets, thousands or even ten-thousands super > small SSTables (some bytes to some kbytes). > This puts a lot of pressure on compaction and may even lead to a crash due to > too many open files - I also encountered this. > What could help to avoid this: > After CASSANDRA-12888 is resolved, a tiny stream (e.g. < 100kb) could be sent > through the write path to be buffered by memtables instead of creating an > SSTable each. > Without CASSANDRA-12888 this would break incremental repairs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
