David Alves commented on CASSANDRA-1123:
----------------------------------------
bq. Hmm, can we do something clever like
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4046228/log4j-excluding-the-logging-of-some-classes
to just log o.a.c.tracing to stdout + R so we don't just error out silently
when something goes wrong w/ tracing?
We can, I'm taking care of that on the next patch along with nodetool.
Although, just to be clear, using a bare TPE is still the way to go because we
still wouldn't want to propagate tracing to tracing mutation threads.
nice job on the DTPE cleanup.

> In the spirit of CASSANDRA-511, it would be useful to tracing on queries to
> see where latency is coming from: how long did row cache lookup take? key
> search in the index? merging the data from the sstables? etc.
> The main difference vs setting debug logging is that debug logging is too big
> of a hammer; by turning on the flood of logging for everyone, you actually
> distort the information you're looking for. This would be something you
> could set per-query (or more likely per connection).
> We don't need to be as sophisticated as the techniques discussed in the
> following papers but they are interesting reading:
