Tupshin Harper commented on CASSANDRA-8371:
-------------------------------------------
And I'd also like to see an option to change max_sstable_age_days to be a
smaller unit of time. Right now, you can only set it to integer days.
Particularly with high ingestion rates, and low TTL, I see legitimate use cases
where that could benefit from being as low as an hour, or even less, in order
to minimize any write amplification.
Just switching to use seconds as the unit of time here would make a lot of
sense to me. 365 days would then be expressible as 315360000. :)

> Running 2.0.11 and having switched a table to
> [DTCS|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6602] we've seen that
> disk IO and gc count increase, along with the number of reads happening in
> the "compaction" hump of cfhistograms.
> Data, and generally performance, looks good, but compactions are always
> happening, and pending compactions are building up.
> The schema for this is
> {code}CREATE TABLE search (
> loginid text,
> searchid timeuuid,
> description text,
> searchkey text,
> searchurl text,
> PRIMARY KEY ((loginid), searchid)
> );{code}
> We're sitting on about 82G (per replica) across 6 nodes in 4 DCs.
> CQL executed against this keyspace, and traffic patterns, can be seen in
> slides 7+8 of https://prezi.com/b9-aj6p2esft
> Attached are sstables-per-read and read-latency graphs from cfhistograms, and
> screenshots of our munin graphs as we have gone from STCS, to LCS (week ~44),
> to DTCS (week ~46).
> These screenshots are also found in the prezi on slides 9-11.

> Can this be a consequence of occasional deleted rows, as is described under
> (3) in the description of CASSANDRA-6602 ?
