Based on my tuning work with C* over the last days, I guess I reached the
following insights.
Maybe someone can confirm whether they make sense:
The more heap I give to Cassandra (up to the GC tipping point of ~8GB) the more
writes it can accumulate in memtables before doing IO.
The more

Yes, that is what I meant.
What remains unclear to me is what the oprational strategy is towards handling
an increase in writes or
