Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-5555: ------------------------------------------- To clarify: Alex was still reproducing OOM, but his initial heap dump showed that IndexSummary was the primary culprit. Once we started running the code from current 1.2, it still OOMs but the culprit is now BufferedSegmentedFile. > 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: Core, Tools > Reporter: Tyler Hobbs > Assignee: Jonathan Ellis > Fix For: 1.2.6 > > Attachments: 5555-01.txt, 5555-02.txt, cass_5555_pic_8.png, > CASSANDRA-5555.txt, CASSANDRA-5555.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.
