Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-9830:
--------------------------------------------
I have not looked at the code, but how do you handle the case when an sstable
goes from the top level in the unrepaired to L0 in repaired? Will that sstable
not have a bloom filter?
> 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: Compaction
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Assignee: Paulo Motta
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: performance
> 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.)
