Tyler Hobbs commented on CASSANDRA-9802: ---------------------------------------- What about picking a page size server-side based on the average row size for the table? It wouldn't be perfect, but doing it based on our metrics would probably be better than (99% of) users could do manually. As a bonus, it fixes the cqlsh problem. > Better page size for aggregates in cqlsh > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-9802 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9802 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne > Assignee: Benjamin Lerer > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.x > > > As discussed in CASSANDRA-9724, cqlsh uses a small page size (100) which > makes sense for "normal" queries since you don't want to flood the terminal, > but is quite sub-optimal for aggregates where the page size is used as the > internal page size for the aggregate (there is thus no terminal flooding > concerns and a page size of 100 is too low). > We should thus make cqlsh use a bigger page size (stick with the python > driver default for instance) when dealing with aggregate queries. According > to Tyler: > bq. it's not trivial, but it is possible. It should take a day or less of > work. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
