["Dominic Letz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8546?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Dominic Letz updated CASSANDRA-8546:
------------------------------------
    Attachment: cassandra-2.0.11-8546.txt

Attaching a patch that replaces the plain arrays with a GapList from the brownies java collections library (apache 2.0 license).

Passes ant test
Improves performance in the worse case scenarios like this on my notebook:

50k deletes: 7 seconds without patch 700ms with patch.
100k deletes: 3 minutes without patch 3 seconds with patch.

> I would like to propose a change of the data structure used in the RangeTombstoneList to store and insert tombstone ranges to something with at least O(log N) insert in the middle and at near O(1) and start AND end. Here is why:
> When having tombstone heavy work-loads the current implementation of RangeTombstoneList becomes a bottleneck with slice queries.
> Scanning the number of tombstones up to the default maximum (100k) can take up to 3 minutes of how addInternal() scales on insertion of middle and start elements.
> The attached test shows that with 50k deletes from both sides of a range.
> INSERT 1...110000
> flush()
> DELETE 1...50000
> DELETE 110000...60000
> While one direction performs ok (~400ms on my notebook):
> {code}
> SELECT * FROM timeseries WHERE name = 'a' ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 1
> {code}
> The other direction underperforms (~7seconds on my notebook)
> {code}
> SELECT * FROM timeseries WHERE name = 'a' ORDER BY timestamp ASC LIMIT 1
> {code}
