Benjamin Lerer commented on CASSANDRA-10707:
--------------------------------------------

{quote}I noticed that CQLLimits.forShortReadRetry() does not provide any limit 
on the number of rows either.{quote}
It looks like I was really tired when I looked at the code :-(

{quote}Not sure about CQLGroupByLimits.forShortReadRetry(). I believe putting 
no limit on the number of rows (and only on the group) might lead to OOM. In 
fact, I need to think more carefully about this but I'm not 100% sure that the 
short read logic isn't throw off by the fact that counted() returns a number of 
groups not rows.{quote}

I think my implementation for {{forShortReadRetry()}} is simply wrong. The goal 
of the short read retry is to fetch the rows that were missing for a given 
partition due to short read. As the number of rows to request is computed in 
{{ShortReadRowProtection:: moreContents}} I believe that even in the case of 
{{GROUP BY}} we should use a {{CQLLimits}} to request the rows.

> Now that Cassandra support aggregate functions, it makes sense to support 
> {{GROUP BY}} on the {{SELECT}} statements.
> It should be possible to group either at the partition level or at the 
> clustering column level.
> {code}
> SELECT partitionKey, max(value) FROM myTable GROUP BY partitionKey;
> SELECT partitionKey, clustering0, clustering1, max(value) FROM myTable GROUP 
> BY partitionKey, clustering0, clustering1; 
> {code}
