Ok. To summarise our actions to get us out of this situation, in hope that it may help others one day, we did the following actions: 1) upgrade to 1.0.7 2) set fp_ratio=0.99 3) set index_interval=4096 4) restarted the node with Xmx30G 5) run `nodetool scrub` and monitor total size of bf files using `du -hc *-Filter.db | grep total` 6) restart node with original Xmx setting once total bf size is under (scrub was running for >12hrs) (remaining bloom filters can be rebuilt later from normal compact) Hopefully it will also eventuate that this cluster can run with a more normal Xmx4G rather than the previous Xmx12G. (2) and (3) are very much dependent on our set up using hadoop where all reads are get_range_slice with 16k rows per request. Both could be tuned correctly but they're the numbers that worked first up. ~mck -- "When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside can't hurt you."
