Hello,
I'm suffering from similar problem with OSS cassandra version3.11.3.
My cassandra cluster have been running for longer than 1 years and there was no
problem until this year.
The cluster is write-intensive, consists of 70 nodes, and all rows have 2 hr
TTL.
The only change is the read consistency from QUORUM to ONE. (I cannot revert
this change because of the read latency)
Below is my compaction strategy.
```
compaction = {'class':
'org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.TimeWindowCompactionStrategy',
'compaction_window_size': '3', 'compaction_window_unit': 'MINUTES', 'enabled':
'true', 'max_threshold': '32', 'min_threshold': '4',
'tombstone_compaction_interval': '60', 'tombstone_threshold': '0.2',
'unchecked_tombstone_compaction': 'false'}
```
I've tried rolling restarting the cluster several times,
but the memory usage of cassandra process always keeps going high.
I also tried Native Memory Tracking, but it only measured less memory usage
than the system mesaures (RSS in /proc/{cassandra-pid}/status)
Is there any way that I could figure out the cause of this problem?
