locked by cassandra JVM, you won't get swapping with Cassandra, but
you could possibly get swapping happening on other processes in the

Can you confirm you don't get the (paraphrasing) "whoops we tried
mlockall but ulimits denied us" message on startup?

That sounds extremely non-likely as it would imply the kernel fails to
honor a successful mlockall(), unless other processes on the same
machine are being swapped out. Did the process r
When using jna the mlockall call will result in all pages locked in rss and
thus reported there so you have either configured -Xms650M or you are running
on a small box and the start script calculated it for you.
