Thank you for pointing that out. 85 gigabytes/gibibytes/GIGABYTES/GIBIBYTES/whatever name you care to give it
CPU and bandwidth are not the problem. Version 4.0.3 but, as I stated, all nodes use the same version so the version is not important either. Existing nodes have 350-400+(choose whatever you want to call a gigabyte) The problem appears to be that adding new nodes is a serial process, which is fine when there is no data and each node is added within 2minutes. It is hardly practical in production. -----Original Message----- From: Bowen Song via user <user@cassandra.apache.org> Sent: Thursday, July 7, 2022 8:43 PM To: user@cassandra.apache.org Subject: Re: Adding nodes EXTERNAL 86Gb (that's gigabits, which is 10.75GB, gigabytes) took an entire day seems obviously too long. I would check the network bandwidth, disk IO and CPU usage and find out what is the bottleneck.
