Vijay commented on CASSANDRA-7438:
----------------------------------
Never mind, my bad it was related the below (which needs to be more
configurable instead) and the items where going missing earlier than i thought
it should and looks you just evict the items per segment (If a segment is used
more more items will disappear from that segment and the lest used segment
items will remain).
{code}
// 12.5% if capacity less than 8GB
// 10% if capacity less than 16 GB
// 5% if capacity is higher than 16GB
{code}
Also noticed you don't have replace which Cassandra uses.
Anyways i am going to stop working on this for now, let me know if someone
wants any other info.
> Serializing Row cache alternative (Fully off heap)
> --------------------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-7438
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7438
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Environment: Linux
> Reporter: Vijay
> Assignee: Vijay
> Labels: performance
> Fix For: 3.0

> Attachments: 0001-CASSANDRA-7438.patch, tests.zip

>
> Currently SerializingCache is partially off heap, keys are still stored in
> JVM heap as BB,
> * There is a higher GC costs for a reasonably big cache.
> * Some users have used the row cache efficiently in production for better
> results, but this requires careful tunning.
> * Overhead in Memory for the cache entries are relatively high.
> So the proposal for this ticket is to move the LRU cache logic completely off
> heap and use JNI to interact with cache. We might want to ensure that the new
> implementation match the existing API's (ICache), and the implementation
> needs to have safe memory access, low overhead in memory and less memcpy's
> (As much as possible).
> We might also want to make this cache configurable.
