Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-668:
------------------------------------------
There's still some mystery here, because the commitlog was on a separate device
+ xfs filesystem, so syncing that shouldn't have to wait for IO from the data
filesystem. But short term this patch is better than nothing.
> long commitlog syncs can cause write pauses

> on a heavily loaded system (deliberately exacerbated by running the bonnie++
> i/o benchmarking tool at the same time as cassandra -- which might not be too
> far off from the environment you would see on some VPS hosts), we're seeing
> CL sync times of 1-5s, causing write pauses.
