Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-5344:
-------------------------------------------

This has two problems:

Hmm, I'd forgotten that we want to hang onto that index entry anyway, so we can 
preheat the cache if necessary.  We can mostly-solve this, by checking if we're 
going to need the entry ahead of time (most of the time, we won't), and pushing 
that information into append/write.

At this point I've mostly implemented single-pass compaction (CASSANDRA-4180) 
as a byproduct of trying to solve this, so I think I'll finish that first 
before coming back to this.

> We've seen several reports of compaction causing GC pauses.  You would think 
> this would be the fault of PCR (which materializes the rows in memory) but 
> LCR seems to be more of a problem.
> I hypothesize that PCR mostly generates just young-gen garbage, but since LCR 
> keeps the BF and row index in-memory for a long time (from construction, 
> until after the row has been merged and written), it gets tenured and can 
> cause fragmentation or promotion failures.
