[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-44) It isn't possible to easily add new column families to an existing cluster

["Jun Rao (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Jun Rao commented on CASSANDRA-44:
----------------------------------

Changing CFs has implications on the logs. Today, the log header has an entry for each CF. Those entries are preallocated at startup and may not be easy to adjust.
