As the amount of pending view updates increases we know that there’s a
mismatch between the rate at which the base receives writes and the
rate at which the view retires them. We react by applying backpressure
to decrease the rate of incoming base writes, allowing the slow view
replicas to catch up. We want to delay the client’s next writes to a
base replica and we use the base’s backlog of view updates to derive
this delay.
To validate this approach we tested a 3 node Scylla cluster on GCE,
using n1-standard-4 instances with NVMEs. A loader running on a
n1-standard-8 instance run cassandra-stress with 100 threads. With the
delay function d(x) set to 1s, we see no base write timeouts. With the
delay function as defined in the series, we see that backlogs stabilize
at some (arbitrary) point, as predicted, but this stabilization
co-exists with base write timeouts. However, the system overall behaves
better than the current version, with the 100 view update limit, and
also better than the version without such limit or any backpressure.
More work is necessary to further stabilize the system. Namely, we want
to keep delaying until we see the backlog is decreasing. This will
require us to add more delay beyond the stabilization point, which in
turn should minimize the base write timeouts, and will also minimize the
amount of memory the backlog takes at each base replica.
