---------------------------------------
Summary: RangeTombstoneList becoming bottleneck on tombstone heavy
tasks
Key: CASSANDRA-8546
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8546
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Environment: 2.0.11 / 2.1
Reporter: Dominic Letz
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 2.0.12
Attachments: tombstone_test.tgz
I would like to propose a change of the data structure used in the
RangeTombstoneList to store and insert tombstone ranges to something with at
least O(log N) insert in the middle and at near O(1) and start AND end. Here is
why:
When having tombstone heavy work-loads the current implementation of
RangeTombstoneList becomes a bottleneck with slice queries.
Scanning the number of tombstones up to the default maximum (100k) can take up
to 3 minutes of how addInternal() scales on insertion of middle and start
elements.
The attached test shows that with 50k deletes from both sides of a range.
INSERT 1...110000
flush()
DELETE 1...50000
DELETE 110000...60000
While one direction performs ok (~400ms on my notebook):
{code}
SELECT * FROM timeseries WHERE name = 'a' ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 1
{code}
The other direction underperforms (~7seconds on my notebook)
{code}
SELECT * FROM timeseries WHERE name = 'a' ORDER BY timestamp ASC LIMIT 1
{code}
