These have been confirmed by > several users in the user list. That's why I report. > The memory consumption of the cassandra java process increases steadily until > it's killed by the os because of oom (with no swap) > Our server is started with -Xmx3000M and running for around 23 days. > pmap -x shows > Total SST: 1961616 (mem mapped data and index files) > Anon RSS: 6499640 > Total RSS: 8478376 > This shows that > 3G are 'overallocated'. > We will use BRAF on one of our less important nodes to check wether it is > related to mmap and report back. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
