Yuki Morishita updated CASSANDRA-4316:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: 4316-1.2-v2.txt
v2 attached with fixes above.
This version alse uses RateLimiter of Double.MAX_VALUE permits as default,
unlimiting limiter(same as hinted handoff throttling).
bq. Is looping over scanner.getCurrentPosition for each row compacted going to
eat CPU?
I don't think it is going to be a problem.
bq. Should we open a new ticket to move FST to RateLimiter and get rid of
Throttle entirely?
Yes. We can do the same to streaming.
> Compaction Throttle too bursty with large rows

> Key: CASSANDRA-4316

> In org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.CompactionIterable the check for
> compaction throttling occurs once every 1000 rows. In our workload this is
> much too large as we have many large rows (16 - 100 MB).
> With a 100 MB row, about 100 GB is read (and possibly written) before the
> compaction throttle sleeps. This causes bursts of essentially unthrottled
> compaction IO followed by a long sleep which yields inconsistence performance
> and high error rates during the bursts.
> We applied a workaround to check throttle every row which solved our
> performance and error issues:
> line 116 in org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.CompactionIterable:
> if ((row++ % 1000) == 0)
> replaced with
> if ((row++ % 1) == 0)
> I think the better solution is to calculate how often throttle should be
> checked based on the throttle rate to apply sleeps more consistently. E.g. if
> 16MB/sec is the limit then check for sleep after every 16MB is read so sleeps
> are spaced out about every second.
