Alexander Dejanovski commented on CASSANDRA-14318:
--------------------------------------------------
Fair enough, I'll go down the read and write path to see if there's debug
logging in v3 and above, and switch debug to trace in the query pager in 2.2.
> Debug logging can create massive performance issues

> Key: CASSANDRA-14318
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14318
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Alexander Dejanovski
> Priority: Major
> Labels: lhf, performance
> Fix For: 2.2.x, 3.0.x, 3.11.x, 4.x

> Debug logging can involve in many cases (especially very low latency ones) a
> very important overhead on the read path in 2.2 as we've seen when upgrading
> clusters from 2.0 to 2.2.
> The performance impact was especially noticeable on the client side metrics,
> where p99 could go up to 10 times higher, while ClientRequest metrics
> recorded by Cassandra didn't show any overhead.
> Below shows latencies recorded on the client side with debug logging on
> first, and then without it :
> !debuglogging.png!
> We generated a flame graph before turning off debug logging that shows the
> read call stack is dominated by debug logging :
> !flame_graph_snapshot.png!
> I've attached the original flame graph for exploration.
> Once disabled, the new flame graph shows that the read call stack gets
> extremely thin, which is further confirmed by client recorded metrics :
> !flame22 nodebug sjk svg.png!
> The query pager code has been reworked since 3.0 and it looks like
> log.debug() calls are gone there, but for 2.2 users and to prevent such
> issues to appear with default settings, I really think debug logging should
> be disabled by default.
