Benjamin Roth created CASSANDRA-13290: -----------------------------------------
Summary: Optimizing very small repair streams Key: CASSANDRA-13290 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13290 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Benjamin Roth I often encountered repair scenarios, where a lot of tiny repair streams were created. This results in hundrets, thousands or even ten-thousands super small SSTables (some bytes to some kbytes). This puts a lot of pressure on compaction and may even lead to a crash due to too many open files - I also encountered this. What could help to avoid this: After CASSANDRA-12888 is resolved, a tiny stream (e.g. < 100kb) could be sent through the write path to be buffered by memtables instead of creating an SSTable each. Without CASSANDRA-12888 this would break incremental repairs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
