Look into your Cassandra's logs to see if JNA is really enabled (it
really should be, by default), and more importantly if JNA is loaded
correctly. You might find some surprising message over there: if this
is the case, just install JNA with your distro's package manager and,
if still doesn't work,
Hi Paolo,
Thanks for the hint - JNA indeed wasn't installed. However, now that
cassandra is actually using it, there doesn't seem to be any change in
terms of speed - still 7 seconds with pycassa.

I would suggest you build one cluster, using all your nodes, and create one
keyspace for all users.
There are lots of reasons, here a few:
* many nodes in a single clusters spreads the load and gives you fault
tolerance.
* read and write requests can be distributed in a many node cluster.

At some point the gossip system on the node this log is from decided that

As timestamps are set by clients, a common gotcha is to have all or some
clients which are not synchronised by NTP.
Hi,
One of the projects I am working on is going to need to store about 200TB
of data - generally in manageable binary chunks. However, after doing some
rough calculations based on rules of thumb I have seen for how much storage
should be on each node I'm worried.
200TB with RF=3 is 600TB = 600
Thanks Aaron and Romain,

Cassandra supports data compression and depending on your data, you can
gain a reduction in data size up to 4x.
600 TB is a lot, hence requires lots of servers...

600 TB is really a lot, even 200 TB is a lot. In our organization, storage
at such scale is handled by our storage team and they purchase specialized
(and very expensive) equipment from storage hardware vendors because at
this scale, performance and reliability is absolutely critical.

Can you say more about how and how often these 200TB get used, queried,
updated? Is a different usage profile needed? What kind of column
families do you have in mind for them?

I think your math is 'relatively' correct. It would seem to me you
should focus on how you can reduce the amount of storage you are using
per item, if at all possible, if that node count is prohibitive.

Would there be any reason why I can't write more than 875 writes/sec to a

I did a web search of the archives (hope I looked in the right place) and

Yes it is possible. Put the following as the last line of your topology file:

Couple of ideas:
* take a look at compression in 1.X
http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/whats-new-in-cassandra-1-0-compression
* is there repetition in the binary data ? Can you save space by implementing
content addressable storage ?

You should be able to get more than that.
Run nodetool cfstats, look at the Write Latency (this is the recent latency,
i.e. is reset each time you run it). This will give you an idea of how long an
individual node is spending on a write.
Fire up JConsole, go to the StorageProxy MBean and look

5 times a small number can be less than 1 big number :)

It's also covered in the O'Reilly cassandra book, however that book is somewhat
out of date.

There is this, it's old..

There was also a discussion about it in the last month or so.
