Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-5863:
-------------------------------------------
If "copy a chunk" cost is so high, does that mean we should be using smaller
compression chunks?
> In process (uncompressed) page cache

> Key: CASSANDRA-5863
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5863
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core
> Reporter: T Jake Luciani
> Labels: performance
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> Currently, for every read, the CRAR reads each compressed chunk into a
> byte[], sends it to ICompressor, gets back another byte[] and verifies a
> checksum.
> This process is where the majority of time is spent in a read request.
> Before compression, we would have zero-copy of data and could respond
> directly from the page-cache.
> It would be useful to have some kind of Chunk cache that could speed up this
> process for hot data, possibly off heap.
