Adam Holmberg commented on CASSANDRA-14834: ------------------------------------------- I looked at it for a few minutes yesterday and at first blush it looked like it should be a simple solution to release the large buffer when metadata is "finalized". However, this [comment|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/00fb6d76d0a97af06ba27c1180d6dcddfa337fea/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/utils/streamhist/StreamingTombstoneHistogramBuilder.java#L138-L140] gives me pause. {quote} * Creates a 'finished' snapshot of the current state of the historgram, but leaves this builder instance * open for subsequent additions to the histograms. Basically, this allows us to have some degree of sanity * wrt sstable early open. {quote} It seems to suggest that we have instances being updated after finalization. Will have to dig into that a bit more. Not moving this ticket yet due to a handful of other things in-flight. > Avoid keeping StreamingTombstoneHistogramBuilder.Spool in memory during the > whole compaction > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-14834 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14834 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Local/Compaction > Reporter: Marcus Eriksson > Priority: Low > Fix For: 4.0, 4.0-beta > > > Since CASSANDRA-13444 {{StreamingTombstoneHistogramBuilder.Spool}} is > allocated to keep around an array with 131072 * 2 * 2 integers *per written > sstable* during the whole compaction.
