Hey Bryan,

I haven't change this setting, but it looks like this is the same setting that can be changed with "nodetool setstreamthroughput"? It sounds pretty interesting at a first glance, but FWIW, the limit was 12.6 MB/s, not 25 MB/s (so effectively 100 Mb/s).

in cassandra.yaml?

# Throttles all outbound streaming file transfers on this node to the

performance.
# When unset, the default is 200 Mbps or 25 MB/s.
# stream_throughput_outbound_megabits_per_sec: 200

        I noticed it's not really fast and my monitoring system shows
        that the traffic incoming on this node is exactly at 100Mb/s
        (12.6MB/s). I know it can be much more than that (I just tested
        sending a file through SSH between the two machines and it goes
        up to 1Gb/s), is there a limitation of some sort on Cassandra
        which limit the transfer rate to 100Mb/s?


    Probably limited by number of simultaneous parallel streams. Many
    people do not want streams to go "as fast as possible" because their
    priority is maintaining baseline service times while
    rebuilding/bootstrapping.

    Not sure there's a way to tune it, but this is definitely on the
    "large node" radar..
