Histogram report
> Cassandra locks up in full GC when you assign the entire heap to row cache
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-7361
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7361
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Environment: Ubuntu, RedHat, JDK 1.7
> Reporter: Jacek Furmankiewicz
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: histogram.png, leaks_report.png
>
>
> We have a long running batch load process, which runs for many hours.
> Massive amount of writes, in large mutation batches (we increase the thrift
> frame size to 45 MB).
> Everything goes well, but after about 3 hrs of processing everything locks
> up. We start getting NoHostsAvailable exceptions on the Java application side
> (with Astyanax as our driver), eventually socket timeouts.
> Looking at Cassandra, we can see that it is using nearly the full 8GB of heap
> and unable to free it. It spends most of its time in full GC, but the amount
> of memory does not go down.
> Here is a long sample from jstat to show this over an extended time period
> e.g.
> http://aep.appspot.com/display/NqqEagzGRLO_pCP2q8hZtitnuVU/
> This continues even after we shut down our app. Nothing is connected to
> Cassandra any more, yet it is still stuck in full GC and cannot free up
> memory.
> Running nodetool tpstats shows that nothing is pending, all seems OK:

> We had this happen on 2 separate boxes, one with 2.0.6, the other with 2.0.8.
> Right now this is a total blocker for us. We are unable to process the
> customer data and have to abort in the middle of large processing.
> This is a new customer, so we did not have a chance to see if this occurred
> with 1.1 or 1.2 in the past (we moved to 2.0 recently).
> We have the Cassandra process still running, pls let us know if there is
> anything else we could run to give you more insight.
