Yeah, it's a huge probelm with Cassandra.

The 4.0 version of cassandra is finally doing the smart thing and spinning up separate threads dedicated to sets/shards of hash ranges held by a node. I'm not sure if they'll run different JVMs per thread as well to do further sharding of the GC generations as well or if they can effectively do that from one JVM, but that would make sense
