Joshua McKenzie commented on CASSANDRA-8160:
--------------------------------------------
+1 to the cat to /dev/null approach. We'll need to twiddle with NUL: on
Windows but it's a concept that should work on both platforms without having to
rely on CLibrary so I'm down for that.

> We should have a CF level configuration with will result in posix_fadvise
> being called for sstables for that CF. It should be called on node startup
> and for new sstables. This should be configurable per CF to allow for some
> CFs to be prioritized above others. Not sure if we should use
> POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL or POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED.
