> CASSANDRA-14096 introduced {{repair_session_space}} as a limit for the memory
> usage for Merkle tree calculations during repairs. This limit is applied to
> the set of Merkle trees built for a received validation request
> ({{{}VALIDATION_REQ{}}}), divided by the replication factor so as not to
> overwhelm the repair coordinator, who will have requested RF sets of Merkle
> trees. That way the repair coordinator should only use
> {{repair_session_space}} for the RF Merkle trees.
> However, a repair session without {{{}-pr-{}}}/{{{}-partitioner-range{}}}
> will send RF*RF validation requests, because the repair coordinator node has
> RF-1 replicas and is also the replica of RF-1 nodes. Since all the requests
> are sent at the same time, at some point the repair coordinator can have up
> to RF*{{{}repair_session_space{}}} worth of Merkle trees if none of the
> validation responses is fully processed before the last response arrives.
> Even worse, if the cluster uses virtual nodes, many nodes can be replicas of
> the repair coordinator, and some nodes can be replicas of multiple token
> ranges. It would mean that the repair coordinator can send more than RF or
> RF*RF simultaneous validation requests.
> For example, in an 11-node cluster with RF=3 and 256 tokens, we have seen a
> repair session involving 44 groups of ranges to be repaired. This produces
> 44*3=132 validation requests contacting all the nodes in the cluster. When
> the responses for all these requests start to arrive to the coordinator, each
> containing up to {{repair_session_space}}/3 of Merkle trees, they accumulate
> quicker than they are consumed, greatly exceeding {{repair_session_space}}
> and OOMing the node.
