Stefania commented on CASSANDRA-11630:
--------------------------------------
I should add that the intention of CASSANDRA-11053 was for people to build the
Cython extensions manually, for performance reasons only, as explained in [this
blog|http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/six-parameters-affecting-cqlsh-copy-from-performance].
> Make cython optional in pylib/setup.py
> --------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-11630
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11630
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Stefania
> Assignee: Stefania
> Fix For: 2.1.x, 2.2.x, 3.0.x, 3.x
>
>
> When building deb packages, we currently run [this
> line|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/debian/rules#L33-L34]:
> {code}
> cd pylib && python setup.py install --no-compile --install-layout deb \
> --root $(CURDIR)/debian/cassandra
> {code}
> Since CASSANDRA-11053 was introduced, this will build the cython extensions
> for _copyutil.py_.
> We should change _setup.py_ so that when we specify {{--no-compile}} then the
> cython extensions are not built, in a similar way to what is done for the
> Python driver.
