HI Jason; The single node showing the anomaly is a hint that the problem is probably local to a node (as you suspected). - How many nodes do you have on the ring ?
- What is the activity when this occurs - reads / writes/ compactions ? - Is there anything that is unique about this node that makes it different from the other nodes ? - Is this a periodic occurance OR a single occurence - I am trying to determine a pattern about when this shows up. - What is the load distribution the ring (ie: is this node carrying more load than the others). The system.log should have more info., about it. hope this helpsJan/ On Friday, March 6, 2015 4:50 AM, Jason Wee <peich...@gmail.com> wrote: well, StatusLogger.java started shown in cassandra system.log, MessagingService.java also shown some stage (e.g. read, mutation) dropped. It's strange it only happen in this node but this type of message does not shown in other node log file at the same time...

cassandra node using java 7 update 72 and we ran jstat on one of the node, and notice some strange behaviour as indicated by output below. any idea why when eden space stay the same for few seconds like 100% and 18.02% for few seconds? we suspect such "stalling" cause timeout to our cluster. any idea what happened, what went wrong and what could cause this? $ jstat -gcutil 32276 1s 0.00 5.78
