Re: CQL DELETE statement

2011-04-18 Thread Courtney Robinson
ut this is also a limitation with the Thrift API -- it's not CQL specific. It turns out that deleting a slice of columns is difficult. There's an old JIRA ticket somewhere that describes the issues. On Sun, Apr 17, 2011 at 7:45 PM, Courtney Robinson wrote: Looking at the CQL spec, i

CQL DELETE statement

It may also be an idea to check the node's memory usage. I encountered this on a few occasions and I simply killed any unneeded process that was eating away my node's memory. In each instance it worked fine after there was about 300MB of free memory From: Patricio Echagüe Sent: Sunday, January
