Terje Marthinussen commented on CASSANDRA-3024:
-----------------------------------------------
As a side note, is there any problems vlq encoding some "unneeded" values. If
they are that rare, they probably have no real impact on performance?
I did not run any real benchmarks yet, but json2sstable actually ran a tiny bit
faster (1-2%) with vlq encoding and relative timestamps.

> vint, respectively. (Probably most "short" lengths would be better as vint
> as well.)
