> CASSANDRA-8464 added support for mmapped decompression where in version <= 2.1 the reads were all decompressed in standard heap buffers.
> Since the usage of the file_cache is based solely on the buffer capacity we should/can make this much larger in 2.2 when the disk access mode is mmap.  
> The downside of this cache being too small is made worse by 8464 since the buffers are mmapped/unmapped causing explicit page faults.
