> When testing a cluster with more requests than it could handle, I noticed 
> significant CPU time (25%) spent in HintsStore.getTotalFileSize.  Here's what 
> I'm seeing from profiling:
> 10% of CPU time spent in HintsDescriptor.fileName which only does this:
>  
> {noformat}
> return String.format("%s-%s-%s.hints", hostId, timestamp, version);{noformat}
> At a bare minimum here we should create this string up front with the host 
> and version and eliminate 2 of the 3 substitutions, but I think it's probably 
> faster to use a StringBuilder and avoid the underlying regular expression 
> altogether.
> 12% of the time is spent in org.apache.cassandra.io.util.File.length.  It 
> looks like this is called once for each hint file on disk for each host we're 
> hinting to.  In the case of an overloaded cluster, this is significant.  It 
> would be better if we were to track the file size in memory for each hint 
> file and reference that rather than go to the filesystem.
> These fairly small changes should make Cassandra more reliable when under 
> load spikes.
> CPU Flame graph attached.
> I only tested this in 4.1 but it looks like this is present up to trunk.
