Cyril Scetbon commented on CASSANDRA-3991:
------------------------------------------

you should remove JVSC from init file as it's not used anymore :

{code}
[cyril:~/src/git/cassandra] trunk(110)+ 2 ± grep JSVC debian/init 
JSVC=/usr/bin/jsvc
{code}

> jsvc seems to be buggy at best.  For instance, if you set a small heap like 128M it seems to completely ignore this and use as much memory as it wants.  I don't know what this is buying us over launching /usr/bin/cassandra directly like the redhat scripts do, but I've seen multiple complaints about its memory usage.
