Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-5555: ------------------------------------------- I have a better idea. Should be relatively easy to special case SSTableReader.open to just not load BF + partition summary in "batch mode." > Allow sstableloader to handle a larger number of files > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-5555 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5555 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Tools > Reporter: Tyler Hobbs > Assignee: Dave Brosius > Fix For: 1.2.6 > > Attachments: 5555-01.txt > > > With the default heap size, sstableloader will OOM when there are roughly 25k > files in the directory to load. It's easy to reach this number of files in a > single LCS column family. > By avoiding creating all SSTableReaders up front in SSTableLoader, we should > be able to increase the number of files that sstableloader can handle > considerably. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
