Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-6079:
-------------------------------------------
Remember, this is the *replay* path. If it's running, the mutation is already
delayed, probably because the target node was down. So delaying for
compactions doesn't seem like a dealbreaker to me. Especially since that
leaves more iops to keep the rest of the system healthy and not go down
ourselves. :)
> Memtables flush is delayed when having a lot of batchlog activity, making
> node OOM

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6079
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Oleg Anastasyev
> Assignee: Oleg Anastasyev
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.2.11, 2.0.2

> Attachments: NoWaitBatchlogCompaction.diff

>
> Both MeteredFlusher and BatchlogManager share the same OptionalTasks thread.
> So, when batchlog manager processes its tasks no flushes can occur. Even
> more, batchlog manager waits for batchlog CF compaction to finish.
> On a lot of batchlog activity this prevents memtables from flush for a long
> time, making the node OOM.
> Fixed this by moving batchlog to its own thread and not waiting for batchlog
> compaction to finish.
