We have 7 column families and we are not using the default key cache (200000).

These were our initial settings so it was not in response to anything. Would you recommend anything else? Thanks

You configuration is unusual both in terms of not setting min heap ==
max heap and the percentage of available RAM used for the heap.  Did you
change the heap size in response to errors or for another reason?

Our initial/max heap are 2 and 6 respectively and we have 8 gigs in
these machines.

Thanks

- How large is your heap?  What jvm settings are you using? How much
physical RAM do you have?
- Do you have the row and/or key cache enabled?  How are they
configured?  How large are they when the OOM is thrown?

Other than adding more memory to the machine is there a way to solve
this? Please help. Thanks
