Jim Witschey commented on CASSANDRA-9522:
-----------------------------------------

I failed to review this properly and have to reopen -- I didn't ask for cassci links before +1ing this change: 

http://cassci.datastax.com/view/Dev/view/tjake/job/tjake-stress-9522-dtest/1/console

This fails on, e.g. {{sstablesplit_test.py:TestSSTableSplit.single_file_split_test}} with an NPE in {{PredefinedOperation.<init>}}. Failing output in [this Gist|https://gist.github.com/mambocab/acaa2a880c2e55d9de8b].

> I'd like to be able to use stress to generate workloads with different distributions of unset columns -- so, for instance, you could specify that rows will have 70% unset columns, and on average, a 100-column row would contain only 30 values.
> This would help us test the new row formats introduced in 8099. There are a 2 different row formats, used depending on the ratio of set to unset columns, and this feature would let us generate workloads that would be stored in each of those formats.
