Thanks for your reply. Yes, my heap space is 1G. My vms have only 1.7G of memory so I hesitate to use more. I am using ALL because I was crashing cassandra when I used ZERO (posting from a few days ago) with a heap space error so it was recommended that I use ALL instead. I also tried using ONE but got even more write timeouts so I thought it would be safer to just wait for ALL replications to be written before trying to write more rows. Thank you for your help.
