----------------------------------------
Summary: Change "Cleaned up" log message slightly
Key: CASSANDRA-18334
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18334
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Observability/Logging
Reporter: Lapo Luchini
Might seem like a very small change, but it leads me to confusion each and
every time. 🤣
I propose to change current message like:
{{Cleaned up to /var/db/cassandra/data/…/me-19423-big-Data.db. 571.512GiB to
502.648GiB (~87% of original) for 11,708,552 keys. Time: 62,321,057 ms.}}
To only 2 decimal places, to disambiguate the fact that the "." is a decimal
separator and not a thousands separator.
{{Cleaned up to /var/db/cassandra/data/…/me-19423-big-Data.db. 571.51GiB to
502.65GiB (~87% of original) for 11,708,552 keys. Time: 62,321,057 ms.}}
I guess this happens less in the USA or countries where "." is always and only
a decimal separator, but e.g. in Italy we use numbers usually like this
"1.000,345" and thus, while accustomed to many values in the "international"
format the period is a bit overloaded in my brain and I always am like "is that
571 and a half GiB, again?"
Changing to two digits would help in that regard and, I think, only removes
extra detail which was kinda overkill in the first place.
