Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-7282:
-------------------------------------------
bq. it does factor in to the decision as to whether the benefits outweigh the
costs associated with moving the complexity from the CSLM into our context as
well as flushing out any subtle bugs and/or downstream unintended side-effects
that come along with the change.
I do agree in principle that we have a "complexity budget" and we need to be
wise about choosing where to spend it.
I look forward to seeing Jason's numbers.

> Currently we maintain a ConcurrentSkipLastMap of DecoratedKey -> Partition in
> our memtables. Maintaining this is an O(lg(n)) operation; since the vast
> majority of users use a hash partitioner, it occurs to me we could maintain a
> hybrid ordered list / hash map. The list would impose the normal order on the
> collection, but a hash index would live alongside as part of the same data
> structure, simply mapping into the list and permitting O(1) lookups and
> inserts.
> I've chosen to implement this initial version as a linked-list node per item,
> but we can optimise this in future by storing fatter nodes that permit a
> cache-line's worth of hashes to be checked at once, further reducing the
> constant factor costs for lookups.
