Caleb Rackliffe commented on CASSANDRA-6936:
--------------------------------------------
My pass at review is complete, and all comments/nits (none of which amount to
serious pushback) are inline in the PR. I'll officially +1 once those items are
resolved (or reasonably ignored). Nice work!

> This could be a painful change, but is necessary for implementing a
> trie-based index, and settling for less would be suboptimal; it also should
> make comparisons cheaper all-round, and since comparison operations are
> pretty much the majority of C*'s business, this should be easily felt (see
> CASSANDRA-6553 and CASSANDRA-6934 for an example of some minor changes with
> major performance impacts). No copying/special casing/slicing should mean
> fewer opportunities to introduce performance regressions as well.
> Since I have slated for 3.0 a lot of non-backwards-compatible sstable
> changes, hopefully this shouldn't be too much more of a burden.
