If off-heap memory (for indes samples, bloom filters, row caches, key caches, etc) is exhausted, will cassandra experience a memory allocation error and quit? If so, are there plans to make the off-heap usage more dynamic to allow less used pages to be replaced with "hot" data and the paged-out / "cold" data read back in again on demand?
