Jimmy Mårdell commented on CASSANDRA-8414:
------------------------------------------
Good point. I've attached a new patch containing code using removed.nextSetBit
and Collections.copy. Should be easy now to change for 2.1.
> Avoid loops over array backed iterators that call iter.remove()

> I noticed from sampling that sometimes compaction spends almost all of its
> time in iter.remove() in ColumnFamilyStore.removeDeletedStandard. It turns
> out that the cf object is using ArrayBackedSortedColumns, so deletes are from
> an ArrayList. If the majority of your columns are GCable tombstones then this
> is O(n^2). The data structure should be changed or a copy made to avoid this.
