I have roughly 150 million rows in my database, which will grow as I continue testing. I'm building an index on a particular column, via cassandra-cli, something of the sort: update column family jobs with column_metadata = [{column_name : 'DATE', validation_class : AsciiType, index_type : 0, index_name : 'date'}]

At this point, the cluster just becomes unresponsive -- just doing "list" on a CF takes a while. Random query test I used to run rather quickly, becomes terribly slow (hasn't returned since I started typing this).

Is that normal? I can' imagine this happening in a production situation, when I decided to add an index for some valid reasons. Really scratching my head now. TIA.

The version is 0.8.1

Thanks!
