             Summary: Option to disable bloom filter in highest level of LCS 
sstables
                 Key: CASSANDRA-9830
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9830
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
            Assignee: Paulo Motta
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.x


We expect about 90% of data to be in the highest level of LCS in a fully 
populated series.  (See also CASSANDRA-9829.)

Thus if the user is primarily asking for data (partitions) that has actually 
been inserted, the bloom filter on the highest level only helps reject sstables 
about 10% of the time.

We should add an option that suppresses bloom filter creation on top-level 
sstables.  This will dramatically reduce memory usage for LCS and may even 
improve performance as we no longer check a low-value filter.

(This is also an idea from RocksDB.)
