Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-6689:
-------------------------------------
I've updated the repository to include your remaining changes.
One last change I did not include was your suppression of errors from calling
the direct cleaner: IMO this is dangerous, and the user should immediately find
out that we do not have full support for off-heap functionality by crashing, so
that they can reconfigure to use the on-heap allocator only. If we cannot
clean, we are at risk of completely trashing the file system page cache through
competition with our direct buffers. Better to fail badly ASAP.
