[jira] Updated: (CASSANDRA-2058) Nodes periodically spike in load

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2058?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

David King updated CASSANDRA-2058:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: cassandra.pmc01.log.bz2

This is one of the affected nodes' logs from 7a..6p (uncompresses to ~33mb). Note that around 4p I added a job to pull a jstack every 120s. On this node around 5:46p I saw the version of the load spike where the node recovers (at around 17:53).

> At ~10p 24 Jan, I upgraded our 20-node cluster from 0.6.8->0.6.10, turned on the DES, and moved some CFs from one KS into another (drain whole cluster, take it down, move files, change schema, put it back up). Since then, I've had four storms whereby a node's load will shoot to 700+ (400% CPU on a 4-cpu machine) and become totally unresponsive. After a moment or two like that, its neighbour dies too, and the failure cascades around the ring. Unfortunately because of the high load I'm not able to get into the machine to pull a thread dump to see wtf it's doing as it happens.
> I've also had an issue where a single node spikes up to high load, but recovers. This may or may not be the same issue from which the nodes don't recover as above, but both are new behaviour
