Ariel Weisberg commented on CASSANDRA-13530:
--------------------------------------------
You are still testing batch at 2ms. I don't think that should hurt performance,
but I would really like to see testing with it at the default value. If it's
syncing extra times with smaller batches due to the 2ms setting that would hurt
performance.
My main question is how many operations are in each batch when batch and group
commitlog are syncing? Is it aggregating batches the way it is supposed to? Is
it syncing more times per second and killing the throughput of the underlying
device? Is the issue that the device is shared between data and the commit log
so it's better to have fewer larger syncs?
Have you added a warmup phase to the testing so that everything is warmed up
before you start measuring? Can you modify the each commit log to log when each
sync starts and completes along with how many log entries are in each sync?
When you log have the log statements go to a dedicated thread to log them via
an unbounded blocking queue so they don't impact performance.

> I propose a new CommitLogService, GroupCommitLogService, to improve the
> throughput when lots of requests are received.
> It improved the throughput by maximum 94%.
> I'd like to discuss about this CommitLogService.
> Currently, we can select either 2 CommitLog services; Periodic and Batch.
> In Periodic, we might lose some commit log which hasn't written to the disk.
> In Batch, we can write commit log to the disk every time. The size of commit
> log to write is too small (< 4KB). When high concurrency, these writes are
> gathered and persisted to the disk at once. But, when insufficient
> concurrency, many small writes are issued and the performance decreases due
> to the latency of the disk. Even if you use SSD, processes of many IO
> commands decrease the performance.
> GroupCommitLogService writes some commitlog to the disk at once.
> The patch adds GroupCommitLogService (It is enabled by setting
> `commitlog_sync` and `commitlog_sync_group_window_in_ms` in cassandra.yaml).
> The difference from Batch is just only waiting for the semaphore.
> By waiting for the semaphore, some writes for commit logs are executed at the
> same time.
> In GroupCommitLogService, the latency becomes worse if the there is no
> concurrency.
> I measured the performance with my microbench (MicroRequestThread.java) by
> increasing the number of threads.The cluster has 3 nodes (Replication factor:
> 3). Each nodes is AWS EC2 m4.large instance + 200IOPS io1 volume.
> The result is as below. The GroupCommitLogService with 10ms window improved
> update with Paxos by 94% and improved select with Paxos by 76%.
