[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-10138) Millions of compaction tasks on empty DB

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10138?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14704808#comment-14704808 ] 

Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-10138:
---------------------------------------------

the many pending compaction tasks were fixed in CASSANDRA-9662

The other issues I cannot explain though, could you attach logs and more details about your nodes?

>                 Key: CASSANDRA-10138
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10138
>             Project: Cassandra
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: CentOS 6.5 and Cassandra 2.1.8
>            Reporter: A Markov
>
> Fresh installation of 2.1.8 Cassandra with no data in the database except systems tables becomes unresponsive after about 5-10 minutes from the start.
> Initially problem was discovered on empty cluster of 12 nodes because of the creation schema error - script was exiting by timeout giving an error. 
> Analysis of log files showed that nodes were constantly reported as DOWN and then after some period of time UP. That was reported for multiple nodes.
> Verification of the system.log file showed that nodes constantly perform GC and while doing that all cores of the system were 100% busy which caused node disconnect after some time.
> Further analysis with nodetool (tpstats option) showed us that just after 10 minutes since clean node restart node completed more then 47M compaction tasks and had more then 12M pending. Here is example of the output:
> nodetool tpstats

> I am repeating myself but that was on TOTALLY EMPTY DB after 10 minutes since cassandra was started.
> I was able to repeateadly reproduce same issue and behaviour with single cassandra instance. Issue was persistent after I did full cassandra wipe out and reinstall from repository.
> I discovered that issue dissipaters if I execute
> nodetool disableautocompaction
> in that case system quickly (in a matter of 20-30 seconds) goes though all pending tasks and becomes idle. If I enable autocompaction again in about 1 minute it jumps to millions of pending tasks again.
> I verified it on the save server with version of Cassandra 2.1.6 and issue was not present.
> logs file do not show any ERROR messages. There were only warnings about GC events that were taking too long.
