Albert P Tobey commented on CASSANDRA-7486:
-------------------------------------------
My benchmarks completed. These were run on 6 quad-core Intel NUCs with 16GB RAM
/ 240GB SSD / gigabit ethernet. Cassandra 2.1.4. The CPUs are fairly slow at
1.4Ghz. The tests were automated with a complete cluster rebuild between tests
and caches dropped before starting Cassandra each time.
The big win with G1 IMO is that it is auto-tuning. I've been running it on a
few other kinds of machines and it generally does much better with more CPU
power.
cassandra-stress was run with an increased heap but is otherwise unmodified
from Cassandra 2.1.4. I checked the gc log regularly and did not see many
pauses for stress itself above 1ms here & there, with most pauses in the
~300usec range.
The final output of the stress is available here:

The stress commands, system.log, GC logs, conf directory from all the servers,
and full stress logs are available on my webserver here:

> May want to default 2.1 to G1.
> 2.1 is a different animal from 2.0 after moving most of memtables off heap.
> Suspect this will help G1 even more than CMS. (NB this is off by default but
> needs to be part of the test.)
