Mick, you will not convince me that I should interpret the phrase "minor
release" as referring to a patch release in the context of Cassandra.
I will continue to use "release" and "version" synonymously on this project, as
I'm sure will others. If you were unaware that they were used interchangeably,
hopefully you will now recognise this meaning when it is used.

Mick, you will not convince me that I should interpret the phrase "minor
release" as referring to a patch release in the context of Cassandra. The fact
that you can point to a special case that exists, and is used by wikipedia
literally as an example that is contrary to the norm[1] is... not compelling.
I will continue to use "release" and "version" synonymously on this project, as
I'm sure will others. Perhaps you were unaware that people did use them
interchangeably. I am surprised, but hopefully in future you will recognise
this meaning when it is used, as it is typically quite clear from context.

> Key: CASSANDRA-18134
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18134
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Local/SSTable
> Reporter: Jacek Lewandowski
> Assignee: Jacek Lewandowski
> Priority: Normal
> Fix For: 5.x
>
>
> This patch improves the following things:
> # SSTable metadata will store a covered slice in addition min/max
> clusterings. The difference is that for slices there is available the type of
> a bound rather than just a clustering. In particular it will provide the
> information whether the lower and upper bound of an sstable is opened or
> closed. The legacy min/max clustering will be stored until a new major format
> {{o}} to ensure backward compatibility
> # SSTable metadata will store a flag whether the SSTable contains any
> partition level deletions or not
> # SSTable metadata will store the first and the last keys of the sstable.
> This is mostly for consistency - key range is logically a part of stats
> metadata. So far it is stored at the end of the index summary. After this
> change, index summary will be no longer needed to read key range of an
> sstable (although we will keep storing key range as before for compatibility
> reasons)
> # The above two changes required to introduce a new minor format for SSTables
> - {{nc}}
> # Single partition read command makes use of the above changes. In particular
> an sstable can be skipped when it does not intersect with the column filter,
> does not have partition level deletions and does not have statics; In case
> there are partition level deletions, but the other conditions are satisfied,
> only the partition header needs to be accessed (tests attached)
> # Skipping sstables assuming those three conditions are satisfied has been
> implemented also for partition range queries (tests attached). Also added
> minor separate statistics to record the number of accessed sstables in
> partition reads because now not all of them need to be accessed. That
> statistics is also needed in tests to confirm skipping.
> # Artificial lower bound marker is now an object on its own and is not
> implemented as a special case of range tombstone bound. Instead it sorts
> right before the lowest available bound in the data
> # Extended the lower bound optimization usage due the 1 and 2
> # Do not initialize iterator just to get a cached partition and associated
> columns index. The purpose of using lower bound optimization was to avoid
> opening an iterator of an sstable if possible.
> See also CASSANDRA-14861
> The changes in this patch include work of [~blambov], [~slebresne],
> [~jakubzytka] and [~jlewandowski]
