Be careful as c* (not just opscenter) will not run well with too many tables. Usually 2 or 3 hundred is a good upper bound though I've seen folks throw money at the problem and run more with special hardware (lots of RAM).

This is normal especially with size tiered compaction. Since it's metrics data, you can always decrease your ttl on the OpsCenter tables, blacklist some keyspaces or tables, or keep truncating. http://docs.datastax.com/en/opscenter/5.2/opsc/configure/opscMetricsConfig_r.html All the best, [image: datastax_logo.png] <http://www.datastax.com/> Sebastián Estévez Solutions Architect | 954 905 8615 | sebastian.este...@datastax.com [image: linkedin.png] <https://www.linkedin.com/company/datastax> [image: facebook.png] <https://www.facebook.com/datastax> [image: twitter.png] <https://twitter.com/datastax> [image: g+.png] <https://plus.google.com/+Datastax/about> <http://feeds.feedburner.com/datastax> <http://goog_410786983> <http://www.datastax.com/gartner-magic-quadrant-odbms> DataStax is the fastest, most scalable distributed database technology, delivering Apache Cassandra to the world’s most innovative enterprises.
