Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3578:
-------------------------------------------

How does your branch deal with replaying?  

I note that replay still checks for {{END_OF_SEGMENT_MARKER}} but nothing actually writes that value anymore.

> Brian Aker pointed out a while ago that allowing multiple threads to modify the commitlog simultaneously (reserving space for each with a CAS first, the way we do in the SlabAllocator.Region.allocate) can improve performance, since you're not bottlenecking on a single thread to do all the copying and CRC computation.
> Now that we use mmap'd CommitLog segments (CASSANDRA-3411) this becomes doable.
> (moved from CASSANDRA-622, which was getting a bit muddled.)
