Github user ben-manes commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/940 Interesting. Then I guess the size must trigger the read bottleneck as larger than writes. Perhaps it is incurring a lot more GC overhead that causes more collections? The CLQ additions requires allocating a new queue node. That and the cache entry probably get promoted to old gen due to the high churn rate, causing everything to slow down. Probably isn't too interesting to investigate vs swapping libraries :)
