T Jake Luciani commented on CASSANDRA-1555:
-------------------------------------------

I'm leaning towards 1) keep both and upgrade to newer impl by performing a 
major compaction.

The problem with 2) is for users with TBs of SSTables and regenerating on 
startup could take days...

> To (optimally) support SSTables larger than 143 million keys, we need to 
> support bloom filters larger than 2^31 bits, which java.util.BitSet can't 
> handle directly.
> A few options:
> * Switch to a BitSet class which supports 2^31 * 64 bits (Lucene's OpenBitSet)
> * Partition the java.util.BitSet behind our current BloomFilter
> ** Straightforward bit partitioning: bit N is in bitset N // 2^31
> ** Separate equally sized complete bloom filters for member ranges, which can 
> be used independently or OR'd together under memory pressure.
> All of these options require new approaches to serialization.
