thanks a lot for the explanation. if I understand it correctly it basically back pressure from C*, it's telling me that it's overloaded and that I need to back off. I better start a few more nodes, I guess. T# On Thu, May 30, 2013 at 10:47 PM, Robert Coli rc...@eventbrite.com wrote: On Thu,

I believe you should roll out more nodes as a temporary fix to your problem, 400GB on all nodes means (as correctly mentioned in other mails of this thread) you are spending more time on GC. Check out the second comment in this link by Aaron Morton, he says the more than 300GB can be

Re: Does replicate_on_write=true imply that CL.QUORUM for reads is unnecessary?

2013-05-31 Thread Peter Schuller
This is incorrect. IMO that page is misleading. replicate on write should normally always be turned on, or the change will only be recorded on one node. Replicate on write is asynchronous with respect to the request and doesn't affect consistency level at all. On Wed, May 29, 2013 at 7:32 PM,

Hi Keith... Thanks for all your help so far. I've done some additional testing and I can see no difference between having all the columns as part of the primary key or having only a subset. Granted, in my contrived example there is no benefit to having all the columns in the primary key, but I

Another option is not having it part of the primary key and using PlayOrm to query but to succeed and scale, you would need to also use PlayOrm partitions and then you can query in the partition and sort stuff. Dean From: Daniel Morton dan...@djmorton.commailto:dan...@djmorton.com Reply-To:
