Jun Rao commented on CASSANDRA-208:
-----------------------------------
Just browsed through the patch for now and found the following bug.
In SSTable.afterAppend, the position added to indexEntries should be the
position in the index file, not the position in the data file.
> OOM intermittently during compaction

> jvm crashes intermittently during compaction. Our test data set is not that
> big, less than 10 GB.
> When jvm is about to crash, we see that it consumes a lot of memory
> (exceeding the max heap size).
> The excessive memory usage during compaction is caused by the maintenance of
> blockIndexes_ in SSTable. this blockIndexes_ was only introduced to the
> apache version.
