Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-6746:
-------------------------------------------

The 2635 issue description is from a production cluster.  ("We've applied this 
patch locally in order to turn of page skipping...  It's better than completely 
disabling DONTNEED because the cache skipping does make sense and has no 
relevant (that I can see) detrimental effects in some cases, like when dumping 
caches.")

This replaced an approach of DONTNEEDing the old sstables, which would crater 
read requests since old sstables will still be in use during compaction before 
the new ones are completely live.

> Reads have a slow ramp up in speed

> On a physical four node cluister I am doing a big write and then a big read. 
> The read takes a long time to ramp up to respectable speeds.
