They are memtable_throughput_in_mb, memtable_flush_after_mins, memtable_operations_in_millions. 

Under 0.7 these are per CF settings, in 0.6 these are cluster wide. 

To start with try  mb one down to something like 64 or 128, ops to 0.5 and mins to 60 . 

What version are you using ?

Hi,

Is it the min_compaction_threshold and max_compaction_threshold? Do i
need to lower the memtable setting also?

Thanks,
Trung.
