My blind guess is: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5179
In our case the only sensible solution was to pause hints delivery and
disable storing them (both done with a nodetool: pausehandoff and
disablehandoff). Once they TTL'd (3 hours by default I believe?) I
turned HH on again
The point is that there is no way, afaik, to limit the speed of these
Hinted Handoff since it's not a stream like repair or bootstrap, no way
either to keep the node out of the ring during the time it is receiving
hints since hints and "normal" traffic both go through gossip protocol on
port 7000.
Hi,
Using C*1.2.2 12 EC2 xLarge cluster.
When I restart a node, if it spend a few minutes down, when I bring it up,
all the cpu are blocked at 100%, even once compactions are disabled,
inducing a very big and intolerable latency in my app. I suspect Hinted
Handoff to be the cause of this. disabli
