Re: UUIDs whose alphanumeric order is the same as their chronological order

2010-06-23 Thread David Boxenhorn
Having a physical location encoded in the UUID *increases* the chance of a collision, because it means fewer random bits. There definitely will be more than one UUID created in the same clock unit on the same machine! The same bits that you use to encode your few servers can be used for over 100

Re: UUIDs whose alphanumeric order is the same as their chronological order

2010-06-23 Thread David Boxenhorn
Secondary reason is probably the ordering, and desire to stay standards compliant. My UUIDs are standards-compliant. They are of type 4. The type is encoded in the format: --4xxx-8xxx- . On Wed, Jun 23, 2010 at 9:54 AM, David Boxenhorn da...@lookin2.com wrote: Having

Tatu, I did read your comments - and I appreciate them very much! I want someone to argue with me (using good arguments) since what I'm doing *does* seem weird to me - because no one else is doing it. What I mean by readable is that the sort order of my UUIDs are obvious to humans. What I mean

Timeout when cluster node fails/restarts

2010-06-23 Thread Wouter de Bie
Hi, I've currently setup a cluster of 11 nodes. When running a small application that uses Hector to read and write keys, and restarting one of the nodes (not the one the application is connected to), the application stalls, times out and reconnects. This takes roughly 10 seconds. When the

I've switched to Pelops recently, no problems with it for now, code become a little more compact.

cassandra_browser not in contrib

2010-06-23 Thread Eben Hewitt
The python cassandra_browser is not in the contrib directory if I clone from git, but it is present if I checkout with svn. Is there typically a lag between svn trunk and git? Or is this intentional because the cassandra_browser is not going to be included going forward? Thanks Eben -- In

Agreed, but at what cost? It's my understanding that the big deterrent is the lack of 3rd party dependencies in maven public repos (e.g. Thrift itself). The option would be to publish a public maven repo containing all dependencies, which ends up being more responsibility then the client
