---------------------------------------
Summary: Make large mutations easier to find
Key: CASSANDRA-12231
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12231
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Ryan Svihla
Priority: Minor
Apologies if this has already been submitted, my lacking Jira search foo will
be to blame.
There are two problems related to large mutations:
1. Mutations that are really large and fail the write with the following
"Mutation of %s is too large for the maximum size of %s" (in CommitLog.java).
While this should be something the clients can handle, they often dont and the
DBA is the first person to notice this. If we could log the primary key
attempted it could be helpful to track down the culprit.
2. Mutations that are still too large but still under the threshold, so they
silently crush the server. We could add a warn to this the same way we do with
batch logs with ideally a configurable threshold. It would also be handy if we
could include the primary key used. Today, these are super nasty today to track
down and involve a scan of the dataset using something like Spark.
