I didn't see such a beast in the repos or any of the tools out there. There doesn't seem to be a way to get all the keys in a keyspace in the API (with a random partitioner, the order preserving partitioner can enumerate the keys). This would be a problem in writing such a tool, right? Or did I miss something? Ted
