We have scylla cluster with tree node. Each node is in its own datacenter. Тo evaluate cluster performance i use cassandra stress test with this parameters:
cassandra-stress write "no-warmup cl=QUORUM" -rate threads=1 -schema "replication(strategy=NetworkTopologyStrategy, DC1=1, DC2=1, DC3=1)" -mode cql3 native connectionsPerHost=80 protocolVersion=4 user=cassandra password=cassandra -node 10.0.0.3
