Cassandra uses IntervalTrees to identify the SSTables that overlap with search 
interval. In Cassandra, IntervalTrees are not mutated. They are recreated each 
time a mutation is required. This can be an issue during repairs. In fact we 
noticed such issues during repair. 

Since lists are cache friendly compared to linked lists and trees, I decided to 
compare the search performance with:
* Linear Walk.
* Elimination using Binary Search (idea is to eliminate intervals using start 
and end points of search interval). 

Based on the tests I ran, I noticed Binary Search based elimination almost 
always performs similar to IntervalTree performance or out performs 
IntervalTree based search. 

I ran the tests using random intervals to build the tree/lists and another 
randomly generated search interval with 5000 iterations. I'm attaching all the 
relevant graphs. 

PS: For the purpose of test, I simplified the IntervalTree code by making it 
non-generic and removing the data portion of the interval.
