see the example at the bottom of this file about setting the log level for a single class https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/conf/log4j-server.properties You probably want to set it for the org.apache.cassandra.thrift.CassandraServer class. But I cannot remember what the logging is like in 0.8. Cassandra gets faster in the later versions, which normally means doing less work. Upgrading to 1.1 would be the first step I would take in improving performance.
