> As I explained on the mailing list, doing slice queries on CFs that are
> sorted by TimeUUIDType gets slower as the value of count increases. According
> to my profiles, this is largely due to the fact that ConcurrentSkipListMap
> calls the comparator very frequently, which is extremely inefficient. In
> order to compare two UUIDs, it has to materialize them both in to
> java.util.UUID objects which is quite slow. The more UUIDs to compare, the
> slower it is.
> Attached is a patch that compares UUIDs by extracting the timestamp directly
> from the byte[] representation. According to my tests, it's close to a 50%
> performance improvement.
