I've been playing around again with Cassandra recently and I agree Thrift is
a pain point, and that was the case when I looked at the project originally.
But I think it's not so much Thrift as how the data is presented to

A quick time-to-production could be achieved through distributing
re-packaged client libraries. I like that idea. I brought it up on
IRC at one time, and Jonathan convinced me I was wrong, but now I
can't remember

IIRC my objection there was that for things like thrift/py that assume
part of thrift is installed normally in python site-packages you
can't just give someone a self-contained client module w/o some pretty
gross hacks.
I was assuming one would use the
for each language (everything else?).

Not sure I believe that. There's nothing *inherently*
The author of those blog posts has cheated by using the C versions of
JSON serializers while using the naive Python implementation of the
Thrift serializer. If he used the 'accelerated' version, Thrift would
be much faster.

not everything is about speed. it really isn't.
It's about cost (or if your google, power usage). and ease of use as
well.
claiming a interface is 10% faster is not going to help if it takes
100 times longer to develop with, or you can't wake someone up at 2am
to quickly fix some data
