             Summary: Allow disabling slab allocation
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5935
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5935
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
            Assignee: Jonathan Ellis
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.2.9


Arena allocation (CASSANDRA-2252) dramatically improves garbage collection 
performance, but it can limit the number of tables that can be practically 
defined in the schema since you have a minimum of 1MB of heap per table.

Although having more than dozens or hundreds of tables defined is almost 
certainly a Bad Idea (just as it is a design smell in a relational database), 
it's relatively straightforward to allow disabling the SlabAllocator.
