Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-14466:
------------------------------------------

[~mulugetam], let's wait with a patch for review until CASSANDRA-9608 is 
actually in or nearly ready. For C* 4.0, we'd need a solution that works with 
both Java 8 _and_ 11 - i.e. works as now for Java 8 and can use direct-I/O w/ 
Java 11 (see the recent discussion on the dev-ML). I think, a multi-release-JAR 
is probably the easiest way forward and I have something lying around but not 
yet ready - but the final solution obviously depends on whether reflection or 
separate classes for 8 + 11 are easier to implement.

> Hi,
> JDK 10 introduced a new API for Direct IO that enables applications to bypass 
> the file system cache and potentially improve performance. Details of this 
> feature can be found at [https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8164900].
> This patch uses the JDK 10 API to enable Direct IO for the Cassandra read 
> path. By default, we have disabled this feature; but it can be enabled using 
> a  new configuration parameter, enable_direct_io_for_read_path. We have 
> conducted a Cassandra read-only stress test and measured a throughput gain of 
> up to 60% on flash drives.
> The patch requires JDK 10 Cassandra Support - 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9608 
> Please review the patch and let us know your feedback.
> Thanks,
> [^direct_io.patch]
