> Existing data filtering uses the following algorithm
> {code}
>    1. find best selective predicate based on the smallest mean columns count
>    2. fetch rows for the best selective predicate predicate, then filter the data based on other predicates left.
> {code}
> So potentially we could improve the performance by
> {code}
>    1.  joining multiple predicates then do the data filtering for other predicates.
>    2.  fine tune the best predicate selection algorithm
> {code}
> For multiple predicate join, it could improve performance if one predicate has many entries and another predicate has a very few of entries. It means a few index CF read, join the row keys, fetch rows then filter other predicates
> Another approach is to have index on multiple columns.
