Just note that unless there is some correlation between range and these sstables being created to begin with (like with leveled), you're highly unlikely to be able to optimize here. For uniformly distributed tokens (hashed keys), all sstables are likely to have almost the entire possible token range in them. -- / Peter Schuller (@scode, http://worldmodscode.wordpress.com)
