Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-3056:
---------------------------------------

cassandra-env.sh is used to setup the "environment", (the jvm and everything 
that is passed to it); cassandra.yaml is really the wrong place for this.  But, 
I agree with Jonathan that it doesn't seem right to add cassandra-env.sh to the 
list of first-start criteria, particularly for something that only a small 
fraction of users will be concerned with.

Why not make this env-only?  If CASSANDRA_HEAP_DUMP_PATH (or whatever) is set, 
then use it to construct the argument (from cassandra-env.sh).

> We should be able to designate the path location to put any perf dumps that 
> are performed. By Default with this not set the perf dump can occur on the 
> root disk and fill the drive. 
> Should be able to solve this by simply inserting JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS 
> -XX:HeapDumpPath=<path to dir>" into cassandra-env.sh as a default option 
> available and set.
