Hey list,

i was just wondering if anyone else is experiencing very slow ( ~ 3.5 MB/sec ) 
re-fill of the row cache at start up. We operate with a large row cache ( 
10-15GB currently ) and we already measure startup times in hours :-)

How is the "saved row cache file" processed? Are the cached row keys simply 
iterated over and their respective rows read from SSTables - possibly creating 
random reads with small enough sstable files, if the keys were not stored in a 
manner optimised for a quick re-fill ? -  or is there a smarter algorithm ( 
i.e. scan through one sstable at a time, filter rows that should be in row 
cache )  at work and this operation is purely disk i/o bound ?

( Admittedly whatever is going on is still much more preferable to starting 
with a cold row cache )

thanks!
Andras
