FWIW, I would love to see graphs which show their compared performance under identical write load and then show the cut-over point for reads between the two clusters. My hypothesis is that your linux cluster will magically be much more perfomant/less loaded due to many linux-specific optimizations in Cassandra, but I'd dig seeing this illustrated in an apples to apples sense with real app traffic. =Rob -- =Robert Coli AIM>ALK - rc...@palominodb.com YAHOO - rcoli.palominob SKYPE - rcoli_palominodb
