Alan Boudreault updated CASSANDRA-6809: --------------------------------------- Labels: docs-impacting performance qa-resolved (was: docs-impacting performance) > Compressed Commit Log > --------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-6809 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6809 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Benedict > Assignee: Branimir Lambov > Priority: Minor > Labels: docs-impacting, performance, qa-resolved > Fix For: 2.2.0 beta 1 > > Attachments: ComitLogStress.java, logtest.txt > > > It seems an unnecessary oversight that we don't compress the commit log. > Doing so should improve throughput, but some care will need to be taken to > ensure we use as much of a segment as possible. I propose decoupling the > writing of the records from the segments. Basically write into a (queue of) > DirectByteBuffer, and have the sync thread compress, say, ~64K chunks every X > MB written to the CL (where X is ordinarily CLS size), and then pack as many > of the compressed chunks into a CLS as possible. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
