Re: Cassandra disk space utilization WAY higher than I would expect

I see the same thing here. I have tried to do some maths including timestamps, columns name, keys and raw data but in the end cassandra reports a cluster size from 2 to 3 times bigger than the raw data. I am surely missing something in my formula + i have a lot of free hard drive space, so it's not

Hi, Regarding point c), you should ask your self, "what is good performance for me ?". The read performance mainly depends on how fast your hard drives are and how many rows you can maintain in cache. With such a small cluster, if you want "good" read performance, you better have fast hard drive an

Re: what/how do you guys monitor "slow" nodes?

For sure you have to pay particular attention to memory allocation on each node, especially be sure your servers dont swap. Then you can monitor how load are balanced among your nodes (nodetools -h XX ring). On Tue, May 11, 2010 at 11:46 PM, S Ahmed wrote: > If you have 3-4 nodes, how do you mon
