Logging configuration can be adjusted as per our requirements using the log4j-server.properties or logback.xml file based on the Cassandra server version you're using. The nodetool cfstats command provides statistics of a column family, such as memtable uses, SSTable count, and Bloom filter usage.

We can disable the Bloom filter by setting the configuration option bloom_filter_fp_change to 1.0. The GCInspector class dumps Garbage Collection information...
