GC for ParNew on 0.8.6

Ever since upgrading to 0.8.6, my nodes' system.log is littered with
GCInspector logs such as these

I have changed absolutely nothing and the work load is perhaps even lower
than before upgrading because I have paused most updates to the cluster. Did
a log level change or does this have deeper meaning ?

Thanks

What do you mean by the cluster has been weird since the upgrade?
Have you noticed slow-downs?  Any other messages in the logs that have
appeared since the upgrade?

No it was an upgrade from 0.8.4 or 0.8.5 depending on the nodes.
No cassandra-env files were changed during the update.
Any other ideas?  The cluster has just been weird ever since running 0.8.6 :
has anyone else upgraded and not run into this?

You don't say which version you upgraded from but I suspect 0.7? JVM
options like heap size calculations have changed. I am guessing you're
seeing it in the logs because the young generation was sized
differently, causing young generation garbage collections to be longer
than before and thus triggering the logging by the Cassandra
GCInspector.
