Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-208:
------------------------------------------

1. empty memtables are not flushed, so there will be at least one key, and the 
first key will always be in indexEntries since 0 % interval == 0 for any 
interval.  lots of the tests have only one row.  I don't think there is a 
problem here.

2. ok

3. Hmm, if you have columns B C and D in a row, and you do a slice_from 
starting with A, don't you want B C D to be returned?  getNearestPosition will 
start the scan at B, but vanilla getPosition will return -1 if there is not an 
exact match.

> 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.
