You should definitely do that. Having non-TTL'd data mixed in will result in SSTables that don't expire because some small portion may be live data. Plus mixed with the small number of compaction candidates, it could take a long time for these types of SSTables to be compacted (possibly never). Kurt Greaves k...@instaclustr.com www.instaclustr.com
