I have a Cassandra node that is going down frequently with
'java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread". Its a 16GB VM
out of which 4GB is set as Xmx and there are no other process running on the
VM. I have about 300 clients connecting to this node on an average. I have no
indication from vmstats/SAR that my VM has used more memory or is memory
hungry. Doesn't indicate a memory issue to me. Appreciate any pointers to this.

Thank you.
