Hi Aaron,
No, I just avoid truncating for the moment L (I'm adding CQL prepared statement to Cassandra-Sharp). It's a bit strange anyway, JVM options are: set JAVA_OPTS=-ea^ -javaagent:"%CASSANDRA_HOME%\lib\jamm-0.2.5.jar"^ -Xms1G^ -Xmx1G^ -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError^ -XX:+UseParNewGC^ -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC^ -XX:+CMSParallelRemarkEnabled^ -XX:SurvivorRatio=8^ -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1^ -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=75^ -XX:+UseCMSInitiatingOccupancyOnly^ -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=7199^ -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false^ -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false^ -Dlog4j.configuration=log4j-server.properties^ -Dlog4j.defaultInitOverride=true That's the default config in Cassandra.bat of Cassandra 1.1 - but 1 Gig, should be sufficient for light tests. There's absolutely nothing in the store, just executing the 3 commands through the cli after the node started makes it crash (and running out of memory). I can upgrade my JVM but this one was OK with 0.8 and 1.0. - Pierre
