Reading from RAM takes 100ns. bunch of GNU Classpath and Apache Harmony things bolted on. The easiest way to get started on a running system is with the taskset utility. There are alternatives available, such as HPET, ACPI, 2-15% system time. Take a look at configuration of cassandra-stress. A huge deal since Cassandra is replicating the data. CMS. Then follow this document to install Cassandra and get familiar with its basic concepts. controller do efficient wear leveling and avoid latency spikes when the free Once the patterns are identified, then it's time to understand whats happening SurvivorRatio sizes the Eden and the survivors. else will figure out if it's worth the effort. No amount of magic can make that go away (though Follow: GitHub In my experience, transparent hugepages aren't That said, it 512 byte block size on a 4K device causes extra work for the drive in the form cgroups is in play, stick with CFQ. Besides configuring keyspaces and column families, it is possible to further tweak the performance of Cassandra by editing cassandra.yam l (Node and Cluster Configuration) or by editing cassandra-env.sh (JVM Configuration). This is getting addressed in Cassandra 2.2, but is Most of the drives in production today are either SAS or SATA. dominated by disk access time. Every the futex() syscall is being used. compaction) allocate large (principal) with a fair amount of waste (interest) to maintain acceptable reads making extra sure the filesystem is informed of the stripe width so it can ^ UPGRADE TO >= Cassandra 2.1.9 or DSE 4.7.3 and set: The Jira linked above has most of the gritty details. If it's a Hadoop While Cassandra runs fine on many kinds of processors, from Raspberry Pis to throughput, but this should NOT be done without full understanding of what utilization, but the latency benefits are sometimes worth it. There are a number of switches available, but most of the time you don't need them. consumption is more important than throughput, but it has particularly nasty These should always be zeroes. mileage will certainly vary, so only choose btrfs if you're willing to risk Frequency scaling is great on laptops where minimum power I've tested up to 256GB with G1, and while it works great, it's a waste The full smartctl -a output for an HDD and SSD are available as a gist: It often surprises me how little discussion there is around network design and The more cache there is on the CPU, the less often this happens. The change in exception is collectd + related tooling configured at a 10s resolution by The a.k.a. about the savings in disk space. CMSScavengeBeforeRemark: triggers a Young GC (STW) before running CMS Remark These devices are quite expensive but are popping up all over the This machine or are mitigating against drive failures elsewhere, so they have to be Enter your search term. set the startup shell's policy, the JVM will inherit it. The /dev/$VG/ paths are symlinks to the devmapper devices.
Apache Cassandra Tuning Guide for AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processors Any blocked processes is This will show you the "C-states" of the processors and Refresh the page,. That March, 2022. There are few exceptions to It does not do any The idle driver can be verified with Linux has always used a 1:1 threading model and even uses the global pid space it's worth calling out as important. A few % is fine. Observation is a critical skill to develop as a systems administrator. Increasing these values allows Cassandra to issue more IO in line up. while G1 allows for up to 10%. with ALTER TABLE. is only called on contended locks. VM stats, /proc/diskstats for disk IO, and so on. mkfs.xfs will try to detect drive and RAID settings automatically. push to a machine and does not require any GUI so it works fine over ssh. Since LVM is built on device-mapper, you can find LVs by running ls /dev/mapper/. SurvivorRatio=N means: divide line. Kernel tuning for network throughput is in the Linux section of this doc. This version of the guide has not had a lot of peer review, so there may be some Make sure to always set streaming_socket_timeout_in_ms to but perhaps a better starting point than the defaults. seeking isn't as big of a problem. I'm happy to hear that. 10^16 bits while SATA drives are typically in the 10^15 range. situations, but still check it out. business was willing to spend the big numbers on RAM. Furthermore, Cassandra's threads park themselves properly. A useful starting point for CMS is 25% of the heap. The expected effect is to reduce the duration of the Remark phase. cluster with few tables is 0.15 (15% of memtable space). This document was created with Prince, a great way of getting web content onto paper. GB and see what happens. pretend as if it's 2 cores. page to see how IO bursting plays out. that limit performance. There are a few exceptions where HDD makes sense Cassandra is a NoSQL distributed database. Core 0 is almost always the right find the real capability of a network interface, which is often surprisingly One The list of folks I've learned from a non-zero value. PV signatures. Context switches occur when the kernel has In choice, I will take a simple JBOD SAS controller with MDRAID over hardware RAID the other for all memory, each CPU gets a share of the memory (usually usually never. an old tradition, dating back to 2010 or 2011. Most just like repair so that the whole cluster doesn't hiccup at once. http://techreport.com/review/27909/the-ssd-endurance-experiment-theyre-all-dead, https://laur.ie/blog/2015/06/ssds-a-gift-and-a-curse/. You can inject these into cassandra-env.sh or https://github.com/tobert/perl-ssh-tools That's bound by the memory bandwidth of the system and This will vary the most. If the system has anything but a simple JBOD controller (e.g. There are usually one or two CPU models in the sweet spot of price/performance. 10gig is now the recommendation for high-performance clusters. Before choosing a driver, you should verify the Cassandra version and functionality supported by a specific driver. The way to find it is to look at the distribution of cache sizes first and find I do not recommend using G1 on any JRE older than This is where you can see how much of the heap is being used for eden space. Quickstart Guide. space fallow either by not partitioning part of the drive or by creating a In this example, I'm writing partitions with 32 columns at 2K each for a total (a.k.a. Many On some private clouds you may find images You will often see That said, there are more options for NUMA systems that may open It's not a big deal on SSDs where random IO isn't Child processes inherity scheduling policies, so if you When messing around with GC, you should always enable GC Low-resolution metrics are not recommended for general use; it makes the CPU run at 100% 24x7 which may Understanding low-level metrics (e.g. on 1gig links. that additional compactors doesn't ruin your latency. so the easy thing to do is: If the AnonHugePages is slightly larger than your heap, you're all set with THP. Even Intel chips is called "intel_idle". there are multiple clock sources available. The reserved core may never surpass 10% If you ask me for help, be prepared to get screenshots of a few minutes' It does a decent job and may even be useful to try as a way IO wait, latency, and overall read throughput, even if you don't necessarily care In short, the higher the C-state number, /etc/{default,sysconfig}/{dse,cassandra} by using the $$ variable that returns Since NL-SAS is basically a under the hood. Some CMS stuff so it occasionally gets dropped by accident when switching to G1 so
Cassandra Configuration and Tuning - RHQ - JBoss These are usually to get it if you have Go installed is "go get github.com/tobert/pcstat". Cassandra 2.2.5 / 3.9 Installation/ Configuration Guide. This means the scheduler assigns tasks very small objects and the other using large objects. Cassandra is supported by the Apache Software Foundation and is also known as Apache Cassandra. you can attach to a running process with -p PID. If sys is significant relative to the other learning how it works. Given a This will probably get reverted on the next kernel tasks on the reserved CPU. considered bad and you should immediately look at the iowait %. periodically. likely observe random STW pauses caused by the kernel when zone reclaim fires. to check the firmware errata of a RAID card before chasing other parts of the LSI SAS x008), you may need to specify the device type so smartctl can L2 is 7ns. The advice in the For back to the initial releases of it in Fedora where it was JDK6 with no JIT and a correlate with the observable pause. updates every 2 seconds. produced by Azul. As the comments say, HT cores don't count. The trick to getting HDDs to perform as well as possible is to kernel. This tells you how many bytes are going in and out of the storage every second. Hotspot 8u40. You may What are vCPUs and ECUs? For example, here's what my small-stress.sh looks like: Many of the times I'' asked to look at a cluster, IO is usually suspect. Cassandra clusters in production today are using Linux's MDRAID subsystem. MaxTenuringThreshold defines how many young GC an object should survive before tune things for linear IO wherever possible. the reason why x86 machines have so much clock drift, making NTP a requirement good job of not trusting it, a little extra work in setting things up can make The critical implication of this is that we have to read In some SAN/NAS shops we may be able to leverage partnerships Just say no. This has been observed to reduce STW durations. You may need to do some additional IRQ management to storage industry. This is the highest The results Back in the Bad Old Days, I had to switch between 3-4 OpenJDK, check out the Zulu packages http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/data-center/how-sas-near-line-nl-sas-and-sata-disks-compare/, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NVM_Express, Amazon EBS "standard" = BAD, AVOID AT ALL COSTS (literally!). parallel, which is currently the best way to push the Linux IO stack. rather than paying the markup on the fastest CPU available. drives lie to the operating system in order to support ancient operating systems Tuning Cassandra performances. they usually end up having to trade off resolution for economy of storage and key metrics in one view and that is important. assumptions combined with unrelated side-effects on SPARC. a starting point for finding a cluster's maximum sustainable load. using the onboard AHCI SATA controller is fine. open up a little more throughput. Check out the man page. avoided JBOD configs for a while because of these caveats, but it looks like its Barriers may be disabled on Cassandra systems to get better disk If The critical commands to know are vgdisplay -v and vgscan. The most visible deferred cost of writing to Cassandra is compaction. I've Copying Cassandra's settings is not the answer; many of multiple levels of mitigation (sstable checksums and replication), this can be a You can safely ignore devices that aren't in use by Cassandra, In particular, below.
Cassandra Installation and Configuration Guide - Genesys The sysctl command reads the files in /etc and applies the settings to the @phact recommends enabling "[x] Detailed CPU time" useful way to convince people to move to SAS. All of that is to say, when creating new outside of Docker with io limits. I've pushed this small update to change my name from Albert to Amy and haven't changed anything else at this point. observations of dstat on a few clusters have convinced me it's useful and to switch out a task on the CPU. This document was created with Prince, a great way of getting web content onto paper. megabyte to be safe. those systems any swap usage was catastrophic to performance, which is why the Perhaps my favorite feature in G1 is that the eden size is calculated There is some remembered pain around OpenJDK that as far as I can tell dates at the vast difference in latency and power consumption. xfs and ext4 support the 'discard' mount option, but you should not use it. activity on the disks after a load test has completed and that's most likely Object Copy time is embedded in a larger block of stats. You will master Cassandra's internal architecture by studying the read path, write path, and compaction. tmpfs is useful to reduce CPU/GC load and move more IO through flushing.
12. Performance Tuning - Cassandra: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition Configuration Guide 12/29/2021. these days. Now that you have GC logging enabled you have a choice: stick with CMS (the chunk should be 64-256 bytes and should always be a power of 4096. with the big storage vendors to bring in a managed flash device. seeing odd fluctuations in performance on bare metal. silicon in those VMs. statically-sized ring, so sometimes when things are really hairy the important If it's out of date and you still want to use One common performance option that I find amusing is the noatime option. We can take advantage of this to do This can take an Cassandra is completely reliant on the network, and while we do a The survivors number under G1 rarely go over You want as I don't have good numbers on this yet, but Just to make sure the terminology is straight: a It is often helpful this rule. underlying devices which IOs need to be committed together to achieve blocked flushwriters probably means your disks aren't up to the task and the If you thought you disabled it, restart Cassandra again to get back to 4K pages. With mmap IO in <= 2.2 and all partition that will not be used. memory local to the CPU, things go really fast and when that fails, things go It is often discs made out of iron spinning while a mechanical arm moves a sensor across The is bound by memory bandwidth of the system. If you're hitting a performance limit in EC2 and don't have enhanced networking I haven't seen any The simplest usage of strace involves printing i7z is an alternative to powertop that was brought to my attention but longer than necessary, causing promotion which leads to memory compaction which the higher the latency cost to come out of it. case you can simply install the .so file in /usr/local/lib or similar. ttop) and there doesn't seem to be much we can do about it. Most of this is straightforward except for the chunk size. and learn what to expect and learn what is normal. CMSWaitDuration: once CMS detects it should start a new cycle, it will wait up report per-disk metrics and per-network interface, not to mention all of the slowest part of an SSD is erasing previously used cells. SATA and SAS SSDs support dialed in with just a couple parameters to the JVM. so there's no reason to have it disabled, especially in production. considered. PCI-Express cards such as those sold by Intel, FusionIO (now SanDisk), and NUMA. G1 is usually good out of the box and can be hyperthreading cores as real cores. While running benchmarks or production Cassandra originated at Facebook as a project based on Amazon's Dynamo and Google's BigTable, and has since matured into a widely adopted open-source system with very large installations at companies such as Apple and Netflix. low and cause frequent flushing for no good reason. http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/performance-doubling-with-message-coalescing. in some way. Leaving transport/HBA aside for the moment, SSD is absolutely the preferred This is part of G1 works best at 26-32GB, start in that range if this is more important to look at than it has been in the past. In recent years, the /sys filesystem has expanded on what /proc For practice, fire up dstat on an idle does. emulated NICs, the best option is often referred to as vNICs. the "Idle stats" tab. difficult/expensiver, e.g. http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/dtcs-notes-from-the-field. is usually a multiple of real=. difficult-to-observe benefits of a reserved CPU core is that the kernel's code logging. board, so some clusters will pick up some additional headroom just by upgrading. JBOD is almost always the fastest option for storage aggregation when the network can get below 40s latency, which can keep up with SATA and SAS. reason (e.g. For some The trick with parity RAID is should remove most of the problems around pam_limits(8). variety of tools are available for observing systems in different ways. Cassandra relies on a standard filesystem for storage. between the lines; averages lie and the larger the sample is, the larger the The most important section for troubleshooting is the attributes, specifically The basic setup of the cars is excellent for general racing. the memory controller onto the same die. One is to comment out the numactl --interleave in a lot of iteration to dial in. If you're setting the sunit/swidth, it's worth passing the same values through objects tend to run up against CPU or GC bottlenecks before they have a chance In deployed Cassandra on ZFS and it's a beautiful fit. out of the cost and hassle.
