-----------------------------------------
Summary: Optimizing very small repair streams
Key: CASSANDRA-13290
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13290
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Benjamin Roth
I often encountered repair scenarios, where a lot of tiny repair streams were
created. This results in hundrets, thousands or even ten-thousands super small
SSTables (some bytes to some kbytes).
This puts a lot of pressure on compaction and may even lead to a crash due to
too many open files - I also encountered this.
What could help to avoid this:
After CASSANDRA-12888 is resolved, a tiny stream (e.g. < 100kb) could be sent
through the write path to be buffered by memtables instead of creating an
SSTable each.
Without CASSANDRA-12888 this would break incremental repairs.
