T Jake Luciani commented on CASSANDRA-6146:
-------------------------------------------
We can certainly support an existing schema without requiring it in a yaml
file. The thing don't understand from your initial comment is how you would
populate/query the table (especially tables with composite cells) without
specifying a per column distribution and range? Your example only considers
they key distribution, but in the case of wide rows you want a distribution of
the 'wideness' of the rows.
I think it's totally reasonable to expect someone to create a stress profile,
it really is simpler to take the sample yaml and extend it vs trying to add
lots of new command line flags to an already complicated. If you want to make
the keyspace/table DDL optional that's easy.

> The existing CQL "support" in stress is not worth discussing. We need to

> the native protocol while we're at it.
