Deleting a column simply produces a tombstone for that column, as far as I
know. It’s probably going through all the columns with tombstones and timing
out. Compacting more often should help, but maybe Cassandra isn’t the best
choice overall for what you’re trying to do.

INFO 12:37:36,705 Heap size: 1037959168/1037959168
My question is: how do I change the heap size?
