Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3532:
-------------------------------------------
BITMAP_INDEX type was never completed (CASSANDRA-1472) so I'm fine with
removing that code and doing whatever is simplest. We can get more
sophisticated if/when we get back to working on 1472.
> Compaction cleanupIfNecessary costly when many files in data dir
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-3532
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3532
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Environment: Solaris 10, 1.0.4 release candidate
> Reporter: Eric Parusel
> Labels: compaction
> Fix For: 1.0.5
>
>
> From what I can tell SSTableWriter.cleanupIfNecessary seems increasingly
> costly as the number of files in the data dir increases.
> It calls SSTable.componentsFor(descriptor, Descriptor.TempState.TEMP) which
> lists all files in the data dir to find matching components.
> Am I roughly correct that (cleanupCost = SSTable count * data dir size)?
> We had been doing write load testing with default compaction throttling
> (16MB/s) and LeveledCompaction.
> Unfortunately we haven't been keeping tabs on sstable counts and it grew out
> of control.
> On a system with 300,000 sstables (!) here is an example of our compaction
> rate. Note that as you're probably aware cleanupIfNecessary is included in
> the timing:

> This is with compaction throttling set to 0 (Off).
> So I believe because of this it's going to take a very long time to recover
> from having so many small sstables.
> It might be notable that we're using Solaris 10, possibly listFiles() is
> faster on other platforms?
> Is it feasible to keep track of the temp files and just delete them rather
> than searching for them for each SSTable using SSTable.componentsFor()?
