Cyril Scetbon commented on CASSANDRA-3991: ------------------------------------------ you should remove JVSC from init file as it's not used anymore : {code} [cyril:~/src/git/cassandra] trunk(110)+ 2 ± grep JSVC debian/init JSVC=/usr/bin/jsvc {code} > Investigate importance of jsvc in debian packages > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3991 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3991 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Brandon Williams > Assignee: Eric Evans > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.0.1 > > Attachments: > 0001-CASSANDRA-3991-refactor-init-script-to-use-start-sto.patch > > > jsvc seems to be buggy at best. For instance, if you set a small heap like > 128M it seems to completely ignore this and use as much memory as it wants. > I don't know what this is buying us over launching /usr/bin/cassandra > directly like the redhat scripts do, but I've seen multiple complaints about > its memory usage. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
