Jie,
4G ram is small for your ring size and node count. My first recommendation is
that you reduce your ring size to 32 {ring_creation_size, 32}. Then change the
max_open_files setting of eleveldb to 40 {max_open_files, 50} and block_size to
32768 {sst_block_size, 32768}. These three settings should quickly improve
performance … but require you start over with your cluster.
Active Anti-Entropy has a bug in 1.4.7. You might as well disable it too:
{anti_entropy, {off, []}}. The recommendation is that you upgrade to 1.4.8.
