Stefan Miklosovic commented on CASSANDRA-17062:
-----------------------------------------------

The name of the newly introduced table - "unweighted_caches" is somehow 
unfortunate. As a user, I would not have a clue what I get by querying that. 
Maybe renaming that table to "auth_caches" is more appropriate? However, that 
limits us to putting auth-related caches there in the future. 

I was trying to model how one table with both cache types would look like and 
there are two columns which are not in unweighted (capacity_bytes and 
size_bytes) and one in unweighted which is not in weighted (capacity) so we 
would need to come up with some "n/a" values if we combine that and that looks 
even worse.

Also, if mutation is going to be introduced and one e.g. do TRUNCATE, I do not 
think that an operator truly wants to invalidate both caches at once. If we 
wanted to invalidate just e.g. unweighted, we would do "DELETE FROM 
system_views.caches WHERE unweighted = true" but again, TRUNCATE would not make 
any difference.

I think we just need to go with the original proposal - to name in 
"unweighted_caches" and so to dedicate a separate table for that.

> Unlike to other caches (row, key, counter), Auth Caches lack some monitoring 
> capabilities. Here are a few particular changes to get this inequity fixed:
>  # Add auth caches to _system_views.caches_ VT
>  # Expose auth caches metrics via JMX
>  # Add auth caches details to _nodetool info_
