Chris Burroughs updated CASSANDRA-9872:
---------------------------------------
Description:
If the KeyCache exists (because at least one column family is using it) we
currenlty check the key cache even for requests to column families where the
key cache is disabled. I think it would be better to only check the cache if
entries *could* be there.
* This will align the key cache with how the row cache behaves.
* This makes the key cache metrics much more useful. For example, 'requests'
becomes 'requests to things that could be in the key cache' and not just 'total
requests'.
* This migh be a micro-optimization saving a few metric update.

only count 'hit-able' requests as key cache misses
