It seems like cart-before-horse decision to assume you want to keep your index
files cached but not your data files. Why not rely on lvmcache’s statistics
about file access to determine what to keep and what not to? It’s going to

On a single node that's a bit less than half full, the index files are 87G.
How will OS disk cache know to keep the index file blocks cached but not

Cassandra does not support this currently. You can create a JIRA and start
