Ahmet AKYOL commented on CASSANDRA-3929:
----------------------------------------

[~rbranson]: thanks for the explanation. I also want to "get it for free" but 
what I tried to say is "as a user, I am OK with extra cql if it's necessary " . 
I was thinking something similar to a redis pipeline which starts with adding 
data with zadd and after that limiting data with zremrangeByRank as in your 
words "if the data is time-ordered ...".

About the requirement "reading the entire row", let's first revisit our use 
cases for this "limited row size type tables". Why we want them? Most probably 
we already have tables for our "big data" (that's why we use and love C*), but 
we need a special cache for "hot data" that's why it's a blocker to move from 
Redis to C* for some storage. So, what about C*'s row cache ? unfortunately, 
not an option because we may need data from many tables or we need only (most 
recent) portion of the wide rows, not all of them. So,once again, what we 
really want from this issue is indeed, a "special cache table" and that's why 
"reading the entire row" is not a problem beacuse we want the entire row on 
memory when it's hot.

once more, just my two cents, no intention to interrupt your development 
process. Just see me as the business (user) side and remember the principle 
"business people and developers must work together daily throughout the 
project" of [agile manifesto|http://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html]
