             Summary: Zero-copy sstable splitting for anticompaction, and 
partial-sstable zero-copy streaming
                 Key: CASSANDRA-21550
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-21550
             Project: Apache Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Chris Lohfink


Anticompaction and range streaming both spend most of their cost re-doing work 
whose
result they already have on disk. Anticompaction rewrites every row of an 
sstable
through three writers only to place each partition into a repaired, transient or
unrepaired child. Streaming a subset of an sstable's ranges takes the 
row-by-row path,
where the sender is cheap (whole compression chunks are sent verbatim) but the 
receiver
decompresses, deserialises, re-serialises and recompresses every row and then 
rebuilds
the index, filter and summary it could have been handed.

Both are avoidable when the bytes wanted are a contiguous run of the parent's
compression chunks: the chunks can be copied (or extent-shared) verbatim and 
every other
component rebuilt from an index-only pass, with no row deserialised on either 
side.

This adds that machinery and the two callers for it. Both are off by default.
