Dmitry Konstantinov updated CASSANDRA-20132:
--------------------------------------------
Description:
Currently, Cassandra can read data from SSTables with tombstones and later drop
them silently if the tombstones are older than gc_grace_seconds (aka purgeable
tombstones). Such tombstones are not visible via readTombstoneHistogram metric,
not reported in Cassandra logs if tombstone threshold is crossed and not
mentioned in tracing events. As a result if a partition has a lot of purgeable
tombstones we may have a slow read query without any signs why it is it slow.
Example: [^trace_sample.txt]
This suggested improvement adds:
1) a new metric which tracks number of such tombstones:
PurgeableTombstoneScannedHistogram
2) a new tracing event: "Read {} purgeable tombstone cells" if number of such
tombstones > 0
