> While at ApacheCon I attended a talk about Cassandra. The developer mentioned using posix_fadvise to prevent linux from storing edit/write ahead log data in the page cache. This sounds great. Accumulo can do this for its write ahead logs.
> Using posix_fadvise was also mentioned for compactions, this is something Accumulo can not do because its compactions read and write to hdfs.
