Ariel Weisberg commented on CASSANDRA-13983:
--------------------------------------------

bq. It doesn't look like we use special Weigher implementations anywhere. I 
think this could be slightly simplified if we made the type param <T extends 
Weighable>?

There is one. It's the natural weigher :-) I think we don't do enough to bound 
resources by weight in general. Having a piece of library code ready to go 
lowers the barrier to using it. The idiom of allowing a pluggable weigher for 
legacy items or classes you can't modify is pretty common in this kind of 
library code (Comparable and sorting and navigable maps, Guava Cache's weigher).

I get that if you want to cut to the bone then yes technically this could be 
done without it, but it's unit tested and it can be done with it. I'd like to 
keep it but you are right it's not core to what this ticket is trying to do.

> For correctness testing it's useful to be able to capture production traffic 
> so that it can be replayed against both the old and new versions of Cassandra 
> while comparing the results.
> Implementing this functionality once inside the database is high performance 
> and presents less operational complexity.
> In [this patch|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/pull/169] there is an 
> implementation of a full query log that logs uses chronicle-queue (apache 
> licensed, the maven artifacts are labeled incorrectly in some cases, 
> dependencies are also apache licensed) to implement a rotating log of queries.
> * Single thread asynchronously writes log entries to disk to reduce impact on 
> query latency
> * Heap memory usage bounded by a weighted queue with configurable maximum 
> weight sitting in front of logging thread
> * If the weighted queue is full producers can be blocked or samples can be 
> dropped
> * Disk utilization is bounded by deleting old log segments once a 
> configurable size is reached
> * The on disk serialization uses a flexible schema binary format 
> (chronicle-wire) making it easy to skip unrecognized fields, add new ones, 
> and omit old ones.
> * Can be enabled and configured via JMX, disabled, and reset (delete on disk 
> data), logging path is configurable via both JMX and YAML
> * Introduce new {{fqltool}} in /bin that currently implements {{Dump}} which 
> can dump in a human readable format full query logs as well as follow active 
> full query logs
> Follow up work:
> * Introduce new {{fqltool}} command Replay which can replay N full query logs 
> to two different clusters and compare the result and check for 
> inconsistencies. <- Actively working on getting this done
> * Log not just queries but their results to facilitate a comparison between 
> the original query result and the replayed result. <- Really just don't have 
> specific use case at the moment
> * "Consistent" query logging allowing replay to fully replicate the original 
> order of execution and completion even in the face of races (including CAS). 
> <- This is more speculative
