Peter Kovgan commented on CASSANDRA-10937:
------------------------------------------

1) I've read recommendations and there were no word about VMWare (or any 
virtualization) as a bad choice. It is no so clear from recommendations. Shared 
storage (NAT drives, etc..), for example, listed as a bad thing, so we avoided 
it. But virtualization per ce is sort of "not mentioned". You have some 
recommendations for Amazon cloud , that's all. Nothing negative regarding 
virtualization.
If you tested on VMWare and got bad results, I'd like to see that in 
instructions.

2) Even with bad IO for whatever reason (and this is probably the case), I 
would rather expect accepting threads stop to accept new messages, not allowing 
memory to overpopulate and explode. So I would anyway treat it as an important 
feature request. May be not a bug, but vulnerability, that should be answered 
with some mechanism. 

Thanks for your answer.

BTW, we will install multiple nodes on single physical machine (because the 
machine is quite strong for 1 node), is that also problematic?

>             Project: Cassandra
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: Cassandra : 3.0.0
> Installed as open archive, no connection to any OS specific installer.
> Java:
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_65-b17)
> OS :
> Linux version 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 
> ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red 
> Hat 4.4.7-4) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Sun Nov 10 22:19:54 EST 2013
> We have:
> 8 guests ( Linux OS as above) on 2 (VMWare managed) physical hosts. Each 
> physical host keeps 4 guests.
> Physical host parameters(shared by all 4 guests):
> Model: HP ProLiant DL380 Gen9
> Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v3 @ 2.60GHz
> 46 logical processors.
> Hyperthreading - enabled
> Each guest assigned to have:
> 1 disk 300 Gb for seq. log (NOT SSD)
> 1 disk 4T for data (NOT SSD)
> 11 CPU cores
> Disks are local, not shared.
> Memory on each host -  24 Gb total.
> 8 (or 6, tested both) Gb - cassandra heap
> (lshw and cpuinfo attached in file test2.rar)
>            Reporter: Peter Kovgan
>            Priority: Critical
>         Attachments: gc-stat.txt, more-logs.rar, some-heap-stats.rar, 
> test2.rar, test3.rar, test4.rar, test5.rar

>
> 8 cassandra nodes.
> Load test started with 4 clients(different and not equal machines), each 
> running 1000 threads.
> Each thread assigned in round-robin way to run one of 4 different inserts. 
> Consistency->ONE.
> I attach the full CQL schema of tables and the query of insert.
> Replication factor - 2:
> create keyspace OBLREPOSITORY_NY with replication = 
> {'class':'NetworkTopologyStrategy','NY':2};
> Initiall throughput is:
> 215.000  inserts /sec
> or
> 54Mb/sec, considering single insert size a bit larger than 256byte.
> Data:
> all fields(5-6) are short strings, except one is BLOB of 256 bytes.
> After about a 2-3 hours of work, I was forced to increase timeout from 2000 
> to 5000ms, for some requests failed for short timeout.
> Later on(after aprox. 12 hous of work) OOM happens on multiple nodes.
> (all failed nodes logs attached)
> I attach also java load client and instructions how set-up and use 
> it.(test2.rar)
> Update:
> Later on test repeated with lesser load (100000 mes/sec) with more relaxed 
> CPU (idle 25%), with only 2 test clients, but anyway test failed.
> Update:
> DSE-4.8.3 also failed on OOM (3 nodes from 8), but here it survived 48 hours, 
> not 10-12.
> Attachments:
> test2.rar -contains most of material
> more-logs.rar - contains additional nodes logs
