Caleb Rackliffe commented on CASSANDRA-16226:
---------------------------------------------
Summarizing the {{ci-cassandra}} runs...
For the 3.0 and 3.11 patches, there's no test failure that's not also present
(assuming it's even run) in the recent history for {{cassandra-3.0}} and
{{cassandra-3.11}}, respectively.
For the trunk patch, there is [one
failure|https://ci-cassandra.apache.org/job/Cassandra-devbranch/268/testReport/org.apache.cassandra.net/ProxyHandlerConnectionsTest/testExpireSomeFromBatch_compression/]
that isn't in the recent history,
{{ProxyHandlerConnectionsTest.testExpireSomeFromBatch}} w/ compression, but it
looks both completely unrelated and accompanied by failures in the normal and
cdc versions on trunk.
It looks like {{ProxyHandlerConnectionsTest}} needs a test fixing Jira...

> This was discovered while tracking down a spike in the number of SSTables
> per read for a COMPACT STORAGE table after a 2.1 -> 3.0 upgrade. Before 3.0,
> there is no direct analog of 3.0's primary key liveness info. When we upgrade
> 2.1 COMPACT STORAGE SSTables to the mf format, we simply don't write row
> timestamps, even if the original mutations were INSERTs. On read, when we
> look at SSTables in order from newest to oldest max timestamp, we expect to
> have this primary key liveness information to determine whether we can skip
> older SSTables after finding completely populated rows.
> ex. I have three SSTables in a COMPACT STORAGE table with max timestamps
> 1000, 2000, and 3000. There are many rows in a particular partition, making
> filtering on the min and max clustering effectively a no-op. All data is
> inserted, and there are no partial updates. A fully specified row with
> timestamp 2500 exists in the SSTable with a max timestamp of 3000. With a
> proper row timestamp in hand, we can easily ignore the SSTables w/ max
> timestamps of 1000 and 2000. Without it, we read 3 SSTables instead of 1,
> which likely means a significant performance regression.
> The following test illustrates this difference in behavior between 2.1 and
> 3.0:
> https://github.com/maedhroz/cassandra/commit/84ce9242bedd735ca79d4f06007d127de6a82800
> A solution here might be as simple as having
> {{SinglePartitionReadCommand#canRemoveRow()}} only inspect primary key
> liveness information for non-compact/CQL tables. Tombstones seem to be
> handled at a level above that anyway. (One potential problem with that is
> whether or not the distinction will continue to exist in 4.0, and dropping
> compact storage from a table doesn't magically make pk liveness information
> appear.)
