Performance thoughts on CQL

2011-05-07 Thread Edward Capriolo
Having used mysql as key value store before I have noticed that when doing low-latency queries the query planning time can actually end up being larger then the execution time. Even if you use a prepared statement mechanism with clients connecting and disconnecting this can be a lot of overhead.

The only query planning Cassandra does is deciding which index to use when there are multiple options. That is handled the same way whether the request is from CQL or classic Thrift. On Sat, May 7, 2011 at 8:17 AM, Edward Capriolo edlinuxg...@gmail.com wrote: Having used mysql as key value store
