> Follow up to CASSANDRA-15922
> Both CommitLogSegment and HintsBuffer use AtomicIntegers for the current offset when allocating. Like in CASSANDRA\-15922 the loops on {{.compareAndSet(..)}} can be replaced with atomic adds using the {{. getAndAdd(..)}} method.
> In highly contended environments the CAS failures can be high, starving writes in a running Cassandra node. On the same cluster CASSANDRA\-15922 was found, after CASSANDRA\-15922's fix was deployed, there was still problems around commit log flushing and hints. No flamegraph was collected that demonstrated the thread contention as clearly as was found in CASSANDRA\-15922, but the performance fix proposed here hopefully is obvious enough.
