Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1969:
-------------------------------------------
The problem was that WeakReferences are only cleaned up in full collections
(CMS or STW), so if GC is tuned correctly you won't be seeing that happen much,
and you'll be doing a lot of queue iterations.
> Use BB for row cache - To Improve GC performance.

> Java BB.allocateDirect() will allocate native memory out of the JVM and will
> help reducing the GC pressure in the JVM with a large Cache.
> From some of the basic tests it shows around 50% improvement than doing a
> normal Object cache.
> In addition this patch provide the users an option to choose
> BB.allocateDirect or store everything in the heap.
