[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-1969) Use BB for row cache - To Improve GC performance.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1969?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12990919#comment-12990919 ] 

Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1969:
-------------------------------------------

1) done in new 0002.

2) We can open another ticket to change row cache sizing options; for now, let's leave it configured in number of rows.  We do zero other direct memory allocations.

> Java BB.allocateDirect() will allocate native memory out of the JVM and will help reducing the GC pressure in the JVM with a large Cache.
> From some of the basic tests it shows around 50% improvement than doing a normal Object cache.
> In addition this patch provide the users an option to choose BB.allocateDirect or store everything in the heap.
