Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4012:
-------------------------------------------
I'm fine doing this over python/cql, since we already ship that driver in-tree
for cqlsh. I also don't think it needs to be ultra-high-performance, since by
exporting it to a text file first you're basically implying that
# performance isn't super critical, or you'd write a custom source -> cassandra
loader and skip the intermediate text file step
# you're not concerned with huge data volumes
So basically our target use case is "want to play with some toy data" or
importing small datasets.

> Would like to be able to import data from a comma-delimited or tab-delimited
