Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-3991:
---------------------------------------
bc. Isn't there some jsvc-specific hook code in our java that isn't necessary
w/ this change?
I don't think so. {{CassandraDaemon}} conforms to the required interface
(without actually implementing a Java one, see
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-daemon/jsvc.html#Directly), and I
don't see commons-daemon anywhere among our dependencies.
You could probably eliminate the init(String[] args) and destroy() methods, but
it seems cheap to leave them in case someone ever wants to use it themselves.

> 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.
