Hi All.
I am using 15 nodes cassandra cluster(m3.2xlarge) with provisioned IOPS disks (4000). I can see around 12k reads/sec ops on the cassandra cluster. But I see around *~3500 read IOPS* on each of the cassandra nodes. Is that normal? I am using LevelledCompaction and I can see in the histograms that most read requests are coming from 1/2 sstables only. Why are there so many disk IOPS or is the normal for cassandra? -Pranay
