Hi all, I'm working on 4180 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4180), and I need a little help.
In the ticket. we're removing the rest of the row header (size in bytes and column count) after the row index was moved out ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2319). Row BF is being removed in (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4885). I'm not sure I'm digging too deep of a hole as I'm diving into it as it seems like row de/serialization knowledge is spread across a lot of the code base. Starting with LazilyCompactedRow as a point of departure (from the ticket), I'm finding myself modifying row serialization stuff in ColumnFamilySerializer, RowIndexEntry, SSTableReader/Writer, SimpleSliceReader, and others. I'd just like to confirm that this seems reasonable and that I haven't gone off the deep end (completely probable, of course). Thanks for your help, -Jason Brown
