["Sylvain Lebresne (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6962?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13997381#comment-13997381 ] 

Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-6962:
---------------------------------------------

Still not a fan of removing the keyspace/table name from the filename. Imo we should go with Jonathan's suggestion above, leave this alone until people actually start yelling cause I don't remember a single user reporting that path lengths was a blocker, so I'd rather not change the directory layout once again (which might break user scripts) until we have practical evidence it's a problem..

> Did we give up on this?
> Could we clean up the redundancy a little by moving the ID into the directory name? e.g., ks/cf-uuid/version-generation-component.db
> I'm worried about path length, which is limited on Windows.
> Edit: to give a specific example, for KS foo Table bar we now have
> /var/lib/cassandra/flush/foo/bar-2fbb89709a6911e3b7dc4d7d4e3ca4b4/foo-bar-ka-1-Data.db
