Corentin Chary commented on CASSANDRA-12915:
--------------------------------------------

Could you re-phrase the question ? I though I answered everything from [this 
comment|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12915?focusedCommentId=15897393&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15897393]
 but it looks like I didn't.

The idea of my approach is that I'm looking for this behavior:

{code}
builder = RangeIntersectionIterator.builder(strategy);
builder.add(new LongIterator(new long[] {}));
builder.add(new LongIterator(new long[] {1}));
range = builder.build();

Assert.assertEquals(0, range.getCount());
Assert.assertFalse(range.hasNext()); // (optimized though isOverlapping() 
returning false
{code}

In other words, adding an empty iterator to a RangeIntersectionIterator should 
make it empty and there is a strong different between an empty and null 
iterator. I believe in your case your empty iterator will just get ignored 
because you need to remove this check:

> It looks like RangeIntersectionIterator.java and be pretty inefficient in 
> some cases. Let's take the following query:
> SELECT data FROM table WHERE index1 = 'foo' AND index2 = 'bar';
> In this case:
> * index1 = 'foo' will match 2 items
> * index2 = 'bar' will match ~300k items
> On my setup, the query will take ~1 sec, most of the time being spent in 
> disk.TokenTree.getTokenAt().
> if I patch RangeIntersectionIterator so that it doesn't try to do the 
> intersection (and effectively only use 'index1') the query will run in a few 
> tenth of milliseconds.
> I see multiple solutions for that:
> * Add a static thresold to avoid the use of the index for the intersection 
> when we know it will be slow. Probably when the range size factor is very 
> small and the range size is big.
> * CASSANDRA-10765
