             Summary: investigate using POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED on compaction
                 Key: CASSANDRA-15452
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15452
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jon Haddad


On read heavy workloads Cassandra performs much better when using a low read 
ahead setting.   In my tests I've seen an 5x improvement in throughput and more 
than a 50% reduction in latency.  However, I've also observed that it can have 
a negative impact on compaction throughput. 

We should investigate using the POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED on files we're compacting 
to see if we can improve performance and reduce page faults.
