Ariel Weisberg commented on CASSANDRA-9738:
-------------------------------------------

Good stuff. Coverage of the OHC key cache provider looks good.

* How are the 2i paths tested?
* The null case in makeVal isn't tested, maybe not that interesting
* SerializationHeader forKeyCache is racy and can result in an undersize array 
clobbering a properly sized one. But... it doesn't retrieve the value it sets 
so odds are eventually it will work out to be the longer one. It works it's 
just intentionally racy.
* In CacheService does that comment about singleton weigher even make sense 
anymore?
* NIODataInputStream has a derived class DataInputBuffer that exposes the 
constructor you made public.
* The string encoding and decoding helpers you wrote seem like they should be 
factored out somewhere else, maybe ByteBufferUtil? Also you don't specify a 
string encoding and there may be some issues with serialized size of non-latin 
characters lurking as well.
* An enhancement we can file for later is to replace those strings with vints 
that reference a map of possible table names. For persistence definitely fully 
qualify, but in memory we can store more entries that way.

> Key cache still uses a concurrent map on-heap. This could go to off-heap and 
> feels doable now after CASSANDRA-8099.
> Evaluation should be done in advance based on a POC to prove that pure 
> off-heap counter cache buys a performance and/or gc-pressure improvement.
> In theory, elimination of on-heap management of the map should buy us some 
> benefit.
