             Summary: move compaction writer to separate thread
                 Key: CASSANDRA-20085
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-20085
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jon Haddad

I'm examining a 5.0 cluster, mostly default settings except these overrides:

{noformat}
cluster_name: "rokt-density"
num_tokens: 4
concurrent_reads: 64
concurrent_writes: 64
trickle_fsync: true
endpoint_snitch: "Ec2Snitch"
compaction_throughput: 0MiB/s
key_cache_migrate_during_compaction: false
{noformat}

Here's a flame graph of compaction taken with these settings:

{noformat}
asprof -e wall -X '*Unsafe.park*' -X '*Native.epollWait' -I '*compaction*' 
{noformat}

and in reverse:

It's clear we can get an easy win by moving the writing portion of compaction 
to a dedicated thread (ExecutorService.newSingleThreadExecutor() ?), instead of 
blocking in the same one.  For this use case, it would improve compaction 
throughput by about 2x.
