bq. Does heap usage stay high-post startup? Can you try forcing a full GC to 
check that?
Yes. GC doesn't seem to help, i'll attach a munin graph that shows it over 
time. It was running for a number of days just under 20G, but you can see from 
that how "squeezed" it was.

(invoking full gc via jmx has no noticeable effect on heap used)

> The CompressionMetada holds the compressed block offsets in memory. Without 
> being absolutely huge, this is still of non-negligible size as soon as you 
> have a bit of data in the DB. Reallocating this for each read is a very bad 
> idea.
> Note that this only affect range queries, since "normal" queries uses 
> CompressedSegmentedFile that does reuse a unique CompressionMetadata instance.
