Hi there,
I'm currently running a 2-node cluster for some small projects that
might need to scale-up in the future: that's why we chose Cassandra.
The actual problem is that one of the node's harddrive usage keeps
growing.
For example:
- after a fresh restart ~ 10GB
- after a couple of days running ~ 60GB
I know that Cassandra uses lots of diskspace but is this still normal?
I'm running cassandra 0.8.7
I run 9 nodes with cassandra 0.7.8 and we see this same behaviour, but
we keep it under control by doing the sequence:
nodetool repair
nodetool compact
nodetool cleanup
According to the 1.0.x changelog IIRC this disk usage is supposed to be
improved.
