Wondering if you’ve  disabled  otc_coalescing_strategy  
CASSANDRA-12676<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12676> since 
you’ve upgraded from 2.x?  also if you found luck by  increasing 
native_transport_max_threads  to address blocked NTRs (CASSANDRA-11363)?

Subject: Re: Constant blocking read repair for such a tiny table

haven't really figured this out yet.  it's not a big problem but it is annoying 
for sure! the cluster was upgraded from 2.1.16 to 3.11.4.  now my only thing is 
i'm not sure if had this type of behavior before the upgrade.  i'm leaning 
toward a no based on my data but i'm just not 100% sure.

just 1 table, out of all the ones on the cluster has this behavior. repair has 
been run few times via reaper.  even did a nodetool compact on the nodes (since 
this table is like 1GB per node..) . just don't see why there would be any 
inconsistency that would trigger read repair.

any insight you may have would be appreciated!  the real thing that started 
this digging into the cluster was during some stress test application team 
complained about high latency (30ms at p98).  this cluster is oversized already 
for this use case with only 14GB of data per node, there is more than enough 
ram so all the data is basically cached in ram.  the only thing that stands out 
is this crazy read repair.  so this read repair may not be my root issue but 
definitely shouldn't be happening like this.

the vm's..
12 cores
82GB ram
1.2TB local ephemeral ssd's

attached the info from 1 of the nodes.

Hello Patrick,

Still in trouble with this? I must admit I'm really puzzled by your issue. I 
have no real idea of what's going on. Would you share with us the output of:

- nodetool status <keyspace>
- nodetool describecluster
- nodetool gossipinfo
- nodetool tpstats

Also you said the app is running for a long time, with no changes. What about 
Cassandra? Any recent operations?

I hope that with this information we might be able to understand better and 
finally be able to help.

just that there are constant read repairs that follow the same traffic pattern 
on the reads, which shows constant writes on the table (from the read repairs), 
which after read repair or just normal full repairs (all full through reaper, 
never ran any incremental repair) i would expect it to not have any mismatches. 
 the other 5 tables they use on the cluster can have the same level traffic all 
very simple select from table by partition key which returns a single record

Hi Patrick,

Is this time series data? If so, I have run into issues with repair on time 
series data using the SizeTieredCompactionStrategy. I have had better luck 
using the TimeWindowCompactionStrategy.

Subject: Constant blocking read repair for such a tiny table

I have a cluster that is running 3.11.4 ( was upgraded a while back from 2.1.16 
).  what I see is a steady rate of read repair which is about 10% constantly on 
only this 1 table.  Repairs have been run (actually several times).  The table 
does not have a lot of writes to it so after repair, or even after a read 
repair I would expect it to be fine.  the reason i'm having to dig into this so 
much is for the fact that under a much large traffic load than their normal 
traffic, latencies are higher than the app team wants

I mean this thing is tiny, it's a 12x12 cluster but this 1 table is like 1GB 
per node on disk.

the application team is doing reads at LOCAL_QUORUM and I can simulate this on 
that cluster by running a query using quorum and/or local_quorum and in the 
trace can see every time running the query it comes back with a 
DigestMismatchException no matter how many times I run it. that record hasn't 
been updated by the application for several months.

repairs are scheduled and run every 7 days via reaper, recently in the past 
week this table has been repaired at least 3 times.  every time there are 
mismatches and data streams back and forth but yet still a constant rate of 
read repairs.

curious if anyone has any recommendations to look info further or have 
experienced anything like this?
