Hi all, I don't seem to be able to complete a full repair on one of the nodes. Memory consuptiom keeps growing till it starts complaining about not having enough heap. I had to disable the automatic memtable flush, as it was generating thousands of almost empty memtables.
My guess is that the key indexes that are kept in memory grow with each new sstable that the repair generates. On my third attempt, I have 1102 pending tasks (which seems to be almost all SSTable build operations mixed with a few compactions), and heap is like 80%-85% full Is there a setting or tweak I can make? I had to up the heap from 6GB to 10GB in a 12 GB machine. I can't give it any more heap.
