Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-3991:
---------------------------------------
bq. Certainly OOMing in a loop, with heap dumps enabled, is not a thing we
really ought to be doing.
FWIW, jsvc isn't restarting for an OOM, it requires the JVM itself to crash
(something I don't think happens very frequently these days).

> jsvc seems to be buggy at best. For instance, if you set a small heap like
> 128M it seems to completely ignore this and use as much memory as it wants.
> I don't know what this is buying us over launching /usr/bin/cassandra
> directly like the redhat scripts do, but I've seen multiple complaints about
> its memory usage.
