[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-325) Column bloomfilter not exploited

["Jonathan Ellis (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-325?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12740813#action_12740813 ] 

Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-325:
------------------------------------------

Having thought it over I think we should keep the bloom filter and activate it as in the -v2 patch.

The bloom filter will be more useful than block indexes alone in the case of doing a name slice, which is the common case for most apps.

Additionally, FB appears to have been moving towards the filters rather than away -- the code uploaded to code.google.com didn't have them at all, and the original apache upload did.  (One of the read paths checked it; in another it was commented out.  That it disappeared entirely as we cleaned things up is probably my fault.)

> There is a bloomfilter created for all columns per row in SSTables. The bloomfilter is deserialized during read, but is not checked.
