Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-5357: -------------------------------------------- So, trying to distill what we actually want here; * Make it possible to cache parts of the partitions (CASSANDRA-1956) ("head", "tail" and "all" perhaps, for users who use it today) * Don't evict entire partitions on writes (CASSANDRA-2864) * Add heuristics to guess the number of columns to be cached (maybe push to later versions, configurable sizes could be fine for now) anything else?

Caching the entire partition is, in > retrospect, not really reasonable, so it's not surprising that it catches > people off guard, especially given the confusion we've inflicted on ourselves > as to what a "row" constitutes. > I propose replacing it with a true query cache. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
