I have a 10 node cluster with cassandra 2.0.8. I am taking this exceptions in the log when I run my code. What my code does is just reading data from a CF and in some cases it writes new data.

INFO [MemoryMeter:1] 2014-06-18 11:05:32,682 Memtable.java (line 481) CFS(Keyspace='OpsCenter', ColumnFamily='rollups300') liveRatio is 14.249755859375 (just-counted was 9.85302734375). calculation took 3ms for 1024 cells After some time, one node of the cluster goes down. Then it goes back after some seconds and another node goes down. It keeps happening and there is always a node down in the cluster, when it goes back another one falls. The only exceptions I see in the log is "connected reset by the peer", which seems to be relative to gossip protocol, when a node goes down. Any hint of what could I do to investigate this problem further? Best regards, Marcelo Valle.
