> json2sstable loads the entire json file into memory. This is so it can sort
> the file before creating an sstable. If the file was created using
> sstable2json and the partitioner isn't changing, this isn't necessary. For
> very large files this means json2sstable requires a huge amount of memory.
> There should be an option to stream the file. A simple check for out of order
> keys will prevent writing bad sstables.
> This should be possible with the SAX style parser available in our current
> json library.
