Jon Haddad commented on CASSANDRA-17021:
----------------------------------------

I like the high level approach.  I don't object to a list of SSTables, but I 
don't think it should be required, it seems a bit overkill for regular users.

I don't think you even need to read through the entire SSTable.  Since murmur 
gives us effectively random partition sorting, we could probably get by just 
from reading <some number of chunk> at the head of the table.  How much data do 
we need to sample to be effective?

What do you think?

> Currently Cassandra supports zstd compression. However, Zstd also supports 
> dictionaries to enhance not only the compression ratio but also the speed. 
> Dictionaries can show 3-4x savings. We should add support to train 
> dictionaries, ideally per SSTable this will yield the maximum gains.
