Brandon Williams created CASSANDRA-4383:
-------------------------------------------
Summary: Binary encoding of vnode tokens
Key: CASSANDRA-4383
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4383
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Brandon Williams
Assignee: Brandon Williams
Fix For: 1.2
Since after CASSANDRA-4317 we can know which version a remote node is using
(that is, whether it is vnode-aware or not) this a good opportunity to change
the token encoding to binary, since with a default of 256 tokens per node even
a fixed-length 16 byte encoding per token provides a great deal of savings in
gossip traffic over a text representation.
