Daniel Doubleday commented on CASSANDRA-1956:
---------------------------------------------
bq. As a side note, I share Daniel's opinion (at least I believe that's what he
meant earlier) that a serializing query cache that invalidate on update will be
very useful for wide rows.
If there's a 'not' missing here than yes :-)
bq. However I see a cache that would not invalidate on update but keep the
cached data matching the filter be much more useful
Just as an implementation idea that could make this easier: If the cache data
would be merged with memtables upon read you could merge/write back cache data
upon memtable flush which avoids synchronization headaches and might be more
efficient (we did something similar in CASSANDRA-2864)

> Changing the row cache to a row+filter cache would make it much more useful.
> We currently have to warn against using the row cache with wide rows, where
> the read pattern is typically a peek at the head, but this usecase would be
> perfect supported by a cache that stored only columns matching the filter.
> Possible implementations:
> * (copout) Cache a single filter per row, and leave the cache key as is
> * Cache a list of filters per row, leaving the cache key as is: this is
> likely to have some gotchas for weird usage patterns, and it requires the
> list overheard
> * Change the cache key to "rowkey+filterid": basically ideal, but you need a
> secondary index to lookup cache entries by rowkey so that you can keep them
> in sync with the memtable
> * others?
