Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-6477:
-------------------------------------
bq. We could support both approaches in terms of a new flag?
I think _permitting_ faster operation with only "eventual consistency"
guarantees is a good thing, since most users doing their own denormalisation
probably get no better than that. A flag on construction?

> Local indexes are suitable for low-cardinality data, where spreading the
> index across the cluster is a Good Thing. However, for high-cardinality
> data, local indexes require querying most nodes in the cluster even if only a
> handful of rows is returned.
