Benedict created CASSANDRA-6804: ----------------------------------- Summary: Consolidate on-disk and NativeCell layouts so that reads from disk require less memory Key: CASSANDRA-6804 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6804 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Benedict Assignee: Benedict Fix For: 3.0
If the on-disk Cell representation were the same as we use for NativeCell, we could easily allocate a NativeCell instead of a BufferCell, immediately reducing the amount of garbage generated on reads. With further work we may also be able to reach a zero-copy allocation as well, reducing further the read costs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
