Brian Gallew created CASSANDRA-13560: ----------------------------------------
Summary: Improved cleanup performance Key: CASSANDRA-13560 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13560 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Components: Compaction Reporter: Brian Gallew I've been thinking about sstables. One of their properties is that they are sorted. In the face of that property, it would seem that the cleanup functionality *should* be very fast as all of the partitions which no longer belong to a given node should be in either one or two contiguous blocks of space. Perhaps this is naive, but I would think the index should clearly indicate what needs to be retained versus what can be disposed of, and thus a cleanup should be able to start reading with the first valid partition, stop with the last, and skip the bulk of loading/unloading that seems to be happening. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
