Hi,

I'm trying to understand what is the liveRatio and if I have to care about it.
I found some reference on the web and if I understand them, the liveRatio 
represents  the Memtable size divided by the amount of data serialized on the 
disk. Is it the truth?


When I see the following log, what can I deduce about it ?

    INFO [MemoryMeter:1] 2014-08-26 19:02:41,047 Memtable.java (line 481) 
CFS(Keyspace='ufapi', ColumnFamily='users') liveRatio is 8.52308554793235 
(just-counted was 8.514143642185562).  calculation took 3613ms for 272646 cells
   INFO [MemoryMeter:1] 2014-08-26 18:36:09,965 Memtable.java (line 481) 
CFS(Keyspace='system', ColumnFamily='compactions_in_progress') liveRatio is 
40.1893491
1242604 (just-counted was 16.37869822485207).  calculation took 0ms for 7 cells


According to my read, the liveRatio is set between 1 and 64. If My liveRatio is 
around 64, should I care about some things?
Does Cassandra use the liveRatio for some internal task or it is just a metric?


Regards,
Eric
