Hi everyone, We would like to propose hardware accelerated compression in Cassandra, CEP-49: Hardware-accelerated compression<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-49%3A+Hardware-accelerated+compression>
As load on Cassandra servers increase, performance of compress/decompress operations starts becoming a bottleneck. Our goal via this CEP is to offload these operations to dedicated hardware accelerators and free up the CPUs. We'd really appreciate your feedback on this proposal. Thank you, Shylaja
