This means there were 12 times the code wanted to put an memtable in the queue to be flushed to disk but the queue was full. ------- seem not a serious problem. what's the different between 'Blocked' and 'All time blocked'.

The length of this queue is controlled by the memtable_flush_queue_size https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-1.2/conf/cassandra.yaml#L299 and memtable_flush_writers . When this happens an internal lock around the commit log is held which prevents writes from being processed. In general it means the IO system cannot keep up. It can sometimes happen when snapshot is used as all the CF's are flushed to disk at once. I also suspect it happens sometimes when a commit log segment is flushed and their are a lot of dirty CF's. But i've never proved it. Increase memtable_flush_queue_size following the help in the yaml file. If you do not use secondary indexes are you using snapshot? Hope that helps.
