Rick Branson updated CASSANDRA-3411: ------------------------------------ Attachment: 006-pre-allocated-recycled-commitlog-segment-files-CASSANDRA-3411.patch 006 recycles commit log segments after recovery. This holds the segment count steady across restarts. I removed the initial segment allocation as it seemed unnecessary after this change. At this point, there's a deadlock condition that arises if the cap is held hard. If the cap is hit, in order to make some room in the commit log, a memtable flush must take place. The memtable flush thread submits a task for execution on the commit log thread, which is already blocked waiting for the memtable flush to finish. > Pre-allocated, Recycled Commitlog Segment Files > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3411 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3411 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Rick Branson > Priority: Minor > Attachments: > 001-pre-allocated-recycled-commitlog-segment-files-CASSANDRA-3411.patch, > 003-pre-allocated-recycled-commitlog-segment-files-CASSANDRA-3411.patch, > 004-pre-allocated-recycled-commitlog-segment-files-CASSANDRA-3411.patch, > 006-pre-allocated-recycled-commitlog-segment-files-CASSANDRA-3411.patch, > 3411-cleaned.txt, 3411-v5.txt > > > An approach for improving commitlog performance is to pre-allocate the full > 128MB segment files and reuse them once all the mutations have been flushed. > Pre-allocation allows writes to be performed without modifying the file size > metadata, and should (in theory) allow the filesystem to allocate a > contiguous block of space for the file.
