Hi

what is the most efficient way to get a distinct key list from a big table
(aprox 20 mil inserts per minute) ?

equivalent to *select distinct key from my_table *for this table

*CREATE TABLE my_table (*

*    key text,*

*    timestamp bigint,*

*    value double,*

*    PRIMARY KEY (key, timestamp) )*

I need to execute this query quite often ( every couple of minutes )

I can of course maintain a table to hold only unique set of keys but this
is of course error prone so I rather avoid it. but it's an option.

Cheers

Avi
