[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-8254) Query parameters (and more) are limited to 65,536 entries

Going beyond 65k parameters feels odd to me, even in this relevant situation. Query parameters (and more) are limited to 65,536 entries - Key: CASSANDRA-8254 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8254 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Components: API Reporter: Nicolas Favre-Felix Parameterized queries are sent over the wire as a string followed by a list of arguments. This list is decoded in QueryOptions.Codec by CBUtil.readValueList(body), which in turn reads a 16-bit short value from the wire as the number of values to deserialize. Sending more values leads to a silent overflow, sometimes reported by the driver as a protocol error as other values are deserialized incorrectly. 64k sounds like a lot, but tables with a large number of clustering dimensions can hit this limit when fetching a few thousand CQL rows only with an IN query, e.g. {code} SELECT * FROM sensor_data WHERE a=? and (b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i) IN ((?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?), (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?), (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?), (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?) ... ) {code} Here, having 8 dimensions in the clustering key plus 1 in the partitioning key restricts the read to 8,191 CQL rows. Some other parts of Cassandra still use 16-bit sizes, for example preventing users to fetch all elements of a large collection (CASSANDRA-6428). The suggestion at the time was we'll fix it in the next iteration of the binary protocol, so I'd like to suggest switching to variable-length integers as this would solve such issues while keeping messages short. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)

It feels to me that to cope with such situation it would be more elegant to allow for a single parameter that would be something like a ListTuple?. Going beyond 65k parameters feels odd to me, even in this relevant situation. We do currently accept a single query parameter of type listtuple... for this. I would suggest using that instead of changing the protocol to support more than 65k query parameters.
