This depends on data. It will distribute keys almost equal between nodes, nut

I *think* people lean towards more JVM than file cache. Often people email about the JVM running Out Of Memory, so give it more and see how much it's using in your case. Your nodes will gave a minimum requirement for memory based on the Memtable Thresholds, cache settings and the usage patters. It

1.) 16 to 24GB out of how much total system memory? Is this 50% of
available system RAM or 90%?
Thanks for the reply!

I recommend you _never_ use nodetool loadba
Will answer as best I can, others will know more. 1) Most people seem to lean towards more memory for the JVM, around 16 to 24gb. Memory is also used by the MemTables and I assume during the compaction processes. 2) Cannot say for sure, but I assume so. Think I've seen the cache with data in it whe
Hi All,
I've got a couple questions that have come up about how Cassandra works and
what others are seeing in their environments. Here goes:
1.) What have you found to be the best ratio of Cassandra row cache to
memory free on the system for filesystem cache? Are you tuning it like an
RDBMS so C
