Sorting a random set of keys will not help. False If you know that you set of keys are on a particular node, then sorting might help. True Two different answers to the same question. But I doubt that it is a sound practice, given that sets of keys can be moved - as nodes are

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Our latency currently is 23.618ms. However I simply read that off one node just now while it wasn't under a load test. I am going to be able to get a better number after the next test run. What is a good value for read latency? On 18/10/13 08:31, Viktor

Paulo, If you have large data sizes then the vnodes with hadoop issue is moot. You will get that many splits with or without vnodes. The issues come when you don't have a lot of data, so all the extra splits slow everything down to a crawl because there are 256 times as many tasks created as

We currently have 2 datacenters and a ring of 5 Cassandra servers on each datacenter. We are getting new hardware, and after evaluating them, plan to upgrade the ring to the new hardware. Is there any recommended procedure for doing so? This is one of the options we are considering: 1.

Thanks for your response Rob. Is step 1 just to reduce downtime for the node? Also, I'm assuming the initial_token of the new node should be set to be the same as the token of the old node, or close to that. Eg. [1] in Replacing a Dead Node talks about setting the new node's intial_token to
