             Summary: Maximum memory usage reached chunk cache message doesn't 
specify which cache is exhausted
                 Key: CASSANDRA-18184
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18184
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Brad Schoening


With Cassandra 4.0.x, we are seeing this message very frequently on the 
majority of our Cassandra 4.0 clusters:

    _[INFO ] [epollEventLoopGroup-5-3] cluster_id=99 ip_address=127.0.0.50  
NoSpamLogger.java:92 - Maximum memory usage reached (128.000MiB), cannot 
allocate chunk of 8.000MiB_

It took me several weeks to track down what it means, until I saw this start-up 
message

    _BufferPools.java:49 - Global buffer pool limit is 2.000GiB for chunk-cache 
and 128.000MiB for networking_

The maximum memory usage warning would benefit from clarifying that its the 
{*}network cache{*}, not the *off-heap chunk* *cache* which is exhausted.  With 
'chunk cache' in both warning messages, they're too easily confused.
