4. Performance Enhancements
Two Cassandra driver settings (maxConnectionsPerHost and maxRequestsPerConnection) are now user configurable. Part of the update, the default values have been increased from the driver defaults.

On Linux deployments, the Cassandra driver uses Netty native epoll (HWKMETRICS-418)
