[jira] Updated: (CASSANDRA-1207) Don't write BloomFilters for skinny rows

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1207?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stu Hood updated CASSANDRA-1207:
--------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 0.8
                       (was: 0.7)

> because typically you will have "original data" CFs whose columns are either accessed by name (you want a BF, index is unnecessary)
Depending on the size of the row (the threshold I think we need to find), you don't want the bloom filter here either, since the disk/os is likely to bring the entire thing into memory. Optimizing the deserialization of columns to skip values would push the threshold up even more.

----

I'm removing this one from 0.7, since we are planning to refactor the file format in 0.8 anyway.

> All rows currently contain a serialized BloomFilter, regardless of size. For smaller rows, it is much more efficient in space and CPU time to not write a BloomFilter, and to eagerly perform lookups against the existing columns.
