Benjamin Lerer commented on CASSANDRA-15164:
--------------------------------------------
After thinking about that problem overnight, I realized that the serialization
might not necessary be the problem. I had a quick chat with [~slebresne] who
believe that it should be possible to create a partitions with more than 2
billions cells.
By consequence, I think that we should change the code to ensure that we do not
overflow if a partition has more than 2 billion cells. For that we can either
increase the default number of buckets (using {{118}} instead of {{114}} will
allow for more than 4 billions cells) or dynamically increasing the number of
buckets if needed.
Otherwise, the approach to clear the overflow seems reasonable to me as it will
solve the problem of the already corrupted {{Statistics}}.
