> somewhat related to static columns (#6561) and slicing (#4851), it is desirable to apply a LIMIT on a per-partition rather than per-query basis, such as to retrieve the top (most recent, etc) N clustered values for each partition key, e.g.
> -- for each league, keep a ranked list of users
> create table scores (league text, score int, player text, primary key(league, score, player) );
> -- get the top 3 teams in each league:
> select * from scores staticlimit 3;
> this currently requires issuing one query per partition key, which is tedious if all the key partition key values are known and impossible if they aren't.
