Hey, I'd like to ask if we can include https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18464 in the 5.0-beta1 release. This introduces the ability to write to the commitlog using direct I/O and bringing some noticeable performance improvements when enabled (disabled by default).
Since it introduces a change in the yaml config, it probably cannot be delivered in RC or 5.0.x - hence my question. The ticket has been reviewed and tested. It is basically in the read-to-commit state. thanks, Jacek
