>                 Key: CASSANDRA-15452
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15452
>             Project: Cassandra
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Legacy/Local Write-Read Paths, Local/Compaction
>            Reporter: Jon Haddad
>            Priority: Normal
>
> 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.  This should be 
> combined with an internal read ahead style buffer that Cassandra manages, 
> similar to a BufferedInputStream but with our own machinery.
