[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-15234) Standardise config and JVM parameters

["Aleksey Yeschenko (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15234?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16886937#comment-16886937 ] 

Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-15234:
-----------------------------------------------

Would be nice, while at it, to pull all JVM args into one class, a-la {{Config}}, with strongly typed accessors and proper documentation for each arg.

Right now you have to look for usage of {{System.getProperty()}}, {{Boolean.getBoolean()}}, etc., to enumerate them all, which is a mess.

> We have a bunch of inconsistent names and config patterns in the codebase, both from the yams and JVM properties.  It would be nice to standardise the naming (such as otc_ vs internode_) as well as the provision of values with units - while maintaining perpetual backwards compatibility with the old parameter names, of course.
> For temporal units, I would propose parsing strings with suffixes of:
> {{code}}
> u|micros(econds?)?
> s(econds?)?
> m(inutes?)?
> h(ours?)?
> d(ays?)?
> mo(nths?)?
> {{code}}
> For rate units, I would propose parsing any of the standard {{B/s, KiB/s, MiB/s, GiB/s, TiB/s}}.
> Perhaps for avoiding ambiguity we could not accept bauds {{bs, Mbps}} or powers of 1000 such as {{KB/s}}, given these are regularly used for either their old or new definition e.g. {{KiB/s}}, or we could support them and simply log the value in bytes/s.
