Is that a problem? Maybe we could do some periodic garbage collection on
the empty column families.

> The current Window Trigger is per key. Meaning every window has a (logical)
> Trigger for every key in the window, i.e. there will be state and time
> triggers per key per window.
> For some types of windows, i.e. based on time it is possible to use a single
> Trigger to fire for all keys at the same time. In that case we would save a
> lot of space on state and timers. Which makes state snapshots a lot smaller.
