We're not all the way there yet with native. But the increased GC time is
temporary, only during the deployment. After all nodes are on 2.1, everything
is smooth.

Does your cluster contain 24+ nodes or fewer?
We did the same upgrade on a smaller cluster of 5 nodes and we didn't see this
behavior. On the 24 node cluster, the timeouts only took effect once ~5-6-7+
nodes had been upgraded.
We're doing some more upgrades next week, trying different deployment plans.
I'll report back with the results.
Thanks for the reply (we absolutely want to move to CQL)

I performed this exact update a few days ago, excepted clients were using
native protocol and it wen smoothly. So I think this might be thrift related.
No idea what is producing this though, just wanted to give the info fwiw.
As a side note, unrelated to the issue, performances using native are a lot
better than thrift starting in C* 2.1. Drivers using native are also more
modern allowing you to do very interesting stuff. Updating to native now that
you are using 2.1 is something you might want to do soon enough :-).

We have a Cassandra cluster with 24 nodes. These nodes were running 2.0.16.
While the nodes are in the ring and handling queries, we perform the upgrade to
2.1.12 as follows (more or less) one node at a time:
- Stop the Cassandra process
- Deploy jars, scripts, binaries, etc.
- Start the Cassandra process
A few nodes into the upgrade, we start noticing that the majority of queries
(mostly through Thrift) time out or report unavailable. Looking at system
information, Cassandra GC time goes through the roof, which is what we assume
causes the time outs.
Once all nodes are upgraded, the cluster stabilizes and no more (barely any)
time outs occur.
What could explain this? Does it have anything to do with how a 2.0
communicates with a 2.1?
Our Cassandra consumers haven't changed.
