> Upstream thrift library has a know issue (THRIFT-601) causing the thrift
> server to crash with an Out-of-Memory Error when bogus requests are sent.
> This reproduces when a very large request size is sent in the request header,
> making the thrift server to allocate a large memory segment leading to OOM.
> LoadBalancer health checks are the first "candidate" for bogus requests
> Thrift developers admit this is a known issue with TBinaryProtocol and their
> recommandation is to use TCompactProtocol/TFramedTransport but this requires
> all thrift clients to be updated (might not be feasible atm)
> So we need a fix similar to CASSANDRA-475.
