I have found that in (limited) practice that it's fairly hard to estimate
due to compression and compaction behaviour. I think measuring and
extrapolating (with an understanding of the datastructures) is the most
effective.

I finally got the math right for the partition index after tracing through
SSTableWriter.IndexWriter.append(DecoratedKey key, RowIndexEntry

I have done that, but it only gets me so far because the cluster and app
that manages it is run by 3rd parties. Ideally, I would like to provide my
end users with a formula or heuristic for establishing some sort of
baselines that at least gives them a general idea for planning. Generating

Not sure what your end setup will be, but I would probably just spin up a
cluster and fill it with typical data to and measure the size on disk.

I should have also mentioned that I have tried using the calculations from
the storage sizing post. My lack of success may be due to the post basing
things off of Cassandra 0.8 as well as a lack of understanding in how to do
some of the calculations.

I am trying to do some disk capacity planning. I have been referring the
datastax docs[1] and this older blog post[2]. I have a column family with
the following,
row key - 4 bytes
column name - 8 bytes
column value - 8 bytes
max number of non-deleted columns per row - 20160
Is there an effective
