Michael Kjellman commented on CASSANDRA-9754:
---------------------------------------------
I saw that way back when I started implementing things -- I'm wondering though
if mmap'ing things even makes since. Given the chunks of work are aligned on 4k
boundaries, even if we mmap a few times we'll still incur the very high and
unpredictable costs from mmap (even if less given 2GB chunks are obviously much
bigger than 4kb)... thoughts? I'm trying to profile it now...

> Looking at a heap dump of 2.0 cluster, I found that majority of the objects
> are IndexInfo and its ByteBuffers. This is specially bad in endpoints with
> large CQL partitions. If a CQL partition is say 6,4GB, it will have 100K
> IndexInfo objects and 200K ByteBuffers. This will create a lot of churn for
> GC. Can this be improved by not creating so many objects?
