[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-9872) only check KeyCache when it is enabled

Chris Burroughs created CASSANDRA-9872:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: only check KeyCache when it is enabled
                 Key: CASSANDRA-9872
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9872
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Chris Burroughs


If the KeyCache exists (because at least one column family is using it) we currenlty check the key cache even for requests to column families where the key cache is disabled.  I think it would be better to only check the cache if entries *could* be there.
 * This will align the key cache with how the row cache behaves.
 * This makes the key cache metrics much more useful.  For example, 'requests' becomes 'requests to things that could be in the key cache' and not just 'total requests'.
 * This migh be a micro-optimization saving a few metric update.

only count 'hit-able' requests as key cache misses
