Thanks Eric. Is there a way to start manually compaction operations? I'm thinking about doing after loading data and before start run phase of the benchmark. Thanks. Att. *Rodrigo Felix de Almeida* LSBD - Universidade Federal do CearĂ¡ Project Manager MBA, CSM, CSPO, SCJP On Mon, Jun 17, 2013

You can start compaction via JMX if you need it and you know what you're doing: Find org.apache.cassandra.db:type=CompactionManager MBean and forceUserDefinedCompaction operation in it. First argument is keyspace name, second one is a comma-separated list of SSTables to compact (filename) You

Load is the size of the storage on disk as I understand it. This can fluctuate during normal usage even if records are not being added or removed, a node's load may be reduced during compaction for example. During compaction, especially if you use Size Tiered Compaction strategy (the default),
