Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-5549: ------------------------------------- Merged your changes, and pushed a version without NBQ et al. One thing I rolled back was your deletion of the commented out code. I uncommented it. That was a massive oversight of something I was using for stress testing the memory management stuff for slab allocators :-/ > Remove Table.switchLock > ----------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-5549 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5549 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: Benedict > Labels: performance > Fix For: 2.1 > > Attachments: 5549-removed-switchlock.png, 5549-sunnyvale.png > > > As discussed in CASSANDRA-5422, Table.switchLock is a bottleneck on the write > path. ReentrantReadWriteLock is not lightweight, even if there is no > contention per se between readers and writers of the lock (in Cassandra, > memtable updates and switches). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
