Jeff Jirsa commented on CASSANDRA-6936: --------------------------------------- Realize this ticket is mostly idle, but CASSANDRA-13553 has a similar need (byte order comparable types to map into rocksdb storage model) and in that Dikang found this, whic seems interesting: https://github.com/ndimiduk/orderly > Make all byte representations of types comparable by their unsigned byte > representation only > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-6936 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6936 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Benedict > Assignee: Branimir Lambov > Labels: compaction, performance > Fix For: 4.x > > > This could be a painful change, but is necessary for implementing a > trie-based index, and settling for less would be suboptimal; it also should > make comparisons cheaper all-round, and since comparison operations are > pretty much the majority of C*'s business, this should be easily felt (see > CASSANDRA-6553 and CASSANDRA-6934 for an example of some minor changes with > major performance impacts). No copying/special casing/slicing should mean > fewer opportunities to introduce performance regressions as well. > Since I have slated for 3.0 a lot of non-backwards-compatible sstable > changes, hopefully this shouldn't be too much more of a burden. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
