Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3024:
-------------------------------------------
Interesting idea. Seems like that might get tricky though where we are going
from socket to file or vice versa in Streaming. And some places don't make
sense to use vints, although the only ones I can think of are in checksums.
To take a step back: how much does vint encoding actually buy us, with
compression enabled?

> We could save some sstable space by encoding longs and ints as vlong and
> vint, respectively. (Probably most "short" lengths would be better as vint
> as well.)
