Ekaterina Dimitrova commented on CASSANDRA-16261:
-------------------------------------------------
I didn't have issues in CircleCI but I see timeouts in Jenkins, not sure
whether it is not Jenkins issue as there were some problems yesterday. I will
push new runs and follow up to confirm everything is alright again
> Prevent unbounded number of flushing tasks

> Key: CASSANDRA-16261
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16261
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Legacy/Local Write-Read Paths
> Reporter: Ekaterina Dimitrova
> Assignee: Ekaterina Dimitrova
> Priority: Normal
> Fix For: 3.0.x, 3.11.x, 4.0-beta
>
>
> The cleaner thread is not prevented from queueing an unbounded number of
> flushing tasks for memtables that are almost empty.
> This patch adds a mechanism to track the number of pending flushing
> tasks in the memtable cleaner. Above the maximum number (2x the flushing
> threads by default), only memtables using at least MCT memory will be
> flushed, where MCT stands for Memory Cleanup Threshold.
> This patch also fixes a possible problem tracking the memory marked as
> "reclaiming" in the memtable allocators and pool. Writes that complete
> only after a memtable has been scheduled for flushing, did not report
> their memory as reclaiming. Normally this should be a small value of no
> consequence, but if the flushing tasks are blocked for a long period,
> and there is a sufficient number of writes, or these writes use
> a sufficiently large quantity of memory, this would cause the memtable
> cleaning algorithm to schedule repeated flushing tasks because the used
> memory is always > reclaiming memory + MCT.
