Thanks everyone for the feedback. So some additional details... 1. Definitely using Oracle JDK (1.7.0_71-b14) 2. Yes, the segfaulting does go away after a restart 3. No OOM log messages when this occurs 4. We are seeing many GC pauses that take a long time, as in over 2 seconds - we are aware that

We are using v2.0.11 and have seen several instances in our 24 node cluster where the node becomes unresponsive, when we look into it we find that there is a cassandra process chewing up a lot of CPU. There are no other indications in logs or anything as to what might be happening, however if we st
