> Currently the contrib/bmt example is kind of wacky.
> In IRC, Jonathan described the current implementation of bmt:
> "it's this weird "one row per column" thing, instead of one row per... row"
> "you send a row whose columns are serialized rows."
> It seems like a bulk loading system should be more usable and understandable by newcomers since that's often one of the first questions when people ask about cassandra - how do I load my existing data into it.
> In addition, it would be nice to better document the bmt/bulk loader example and/or create a wiki page that describes in more detail how to do bulk loading with cassandra.
