Experimental results: everything we thought we knew about thread-pools is wrong

2019-03-13 Thread Matthew Stump
Howdy, As a followup to my earlier thread I wanted to share some of our experimental data using an auto-tuning agent to find optimal thread pool settings for C*. The results surprised me. It invalidated a lot of previous thinking about tuning C* and calls into question some of the decisions that

Multi-indexing data

2010-03-29 Thread Matthew Stump
Hi, I have a question about Cassandra's data model I was hoping you guys could help me with. Most of our queries are performed against a series of tables containing crypto keys and their associated meta data. A key could have any number of identifiable attributes that need to be searchable:
