Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-847:
------------------------------------

> hasNext won't seek any more than a clunkier manual interface
I guess it is actually the lazy object that might cause the problem I described.

Alright. So we convert Scanner back into an Iterator over a lazily fetched 
Slice subclass?

> Make the reading half of compactions memory-efficient

> This issue is the next on the road to finally fixing CASSANDRA-16. To make 
> compactions memory efficient, we have to be able to perform the compaction 
> process on the smallest possible chunks that might intersect and contend 
> one-another, meaning that we need a better abstraction for reading from 
> SSTables.
