Chris Eineke commented on CASSANDRA-5748:
-----------------------------------------
Sylvain,
Thank you for your response. That's great to hear! Is there a anticipated
release date yet?
> When flushing, nodes spent almost 100% in AbstractCompositeType.compare

> Key: CASSANDRA-5748
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5748
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.2.5, 1.2.6
> Environment: Apache Cassandra v1.2.6
> 4-node cluster, mostly the same hardware
> # java -version
> java version "1.6.0_37"
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_37-b06)
> Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.12-b01, mixed mode)
> Reporter: Chris Eineke
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: thread_dump
>
>
> We're pretty heavy users of CQL3 and CQL3 collection types. Occasionally,
> some nodes of the cluster will become extremely sluggish and the cluster as a
> whole starts to become unresponsive, reads will time out, and nodes will drop
> mutation messages. This happens when nodes flush Memtables to disk (based on
> my tail of the system.log on each node).
> I'm a curious guy, so I attached jvisualvm (v1.3.3) to the JVMs that were
> having this problem. These nodes are spending up to 98% of CPU in
> org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.AbstractCompositeType.compare(AbstractCompositeType.java:78).
> I will attach a thread dump.
> Thi is causing us quite a headache, because we're unable to figure what would
> be causing this. We tried tuning several configuration settings (column cache
> size, row key cache size), but the cluster exhibits the same issues even with
> the default configuration (except for a modified num_tokens and
> listen_address).
