Is there any advantage to using say 40 columns per row vs using 2 columns (one for the pk and the other for data) and then shoving the data into a BLOB as a JSON object?
To date, we’ve been just adding new columns. I profiled Cassandra and about 50% of the CPU time is spent on CPU doing compactions. Seeing that CS is being CPU bottlenecked maybe this is a way I can optimize it.
