-----------------------------------

             Summary: Make all partitions btree backed
                 Key: CASSANDRA-9932
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9932
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Benedict
            Assignee: Benedict
             Fix For: 3.0.0 rc1


Following on from the other btree related refactors, this patch makes all 
partition (and partition-like) objects backed by the same basic structure: 
{{AbstractBTreePartition}}. With two main offshoots: 
{{ImmutableBTreePartition}} and {{AtomicBTreePartition}}

The main upshot is a 30% net code reduction, meaning better exercise of btree 
code paths and fewer new code paths to go wrong. A secondary upshort is that, 
by funnelling all our comparisons through a btree, there is a higher likelihood 
of icache occupancy and we have only one area to focus delivery of improvements 
for their enjoyment by all.
