Anthony,

All I can say is that the steps I outlined below fixed my problem and
allowed me to process 60 million rows of data.

Tim do you know if this is the actual reason that is causing the broken
pipe? I'm having a hard time convincing my team that modifying this
value will fix the issue.

Jonathan, do you know if there is a valid explanation on why Tim no
longer has the problem based on this change?

 I no longer get the error on the loader program. The steps I took to
fix
 it are increasing the thrift_max_message_length_in_mb msg length,
 stopping cassandra, blowing away the prior data store, and then
 restarting cassandra.

 It's probably a network thing.
 
 The only thing I can think of in cassandra is
 thrift_max_message_length_in_mb in the config. That config setting will
 result in a TException thrown on the server side (i think), not sure if
 that makes the server kill the socket. I would hope the error returns
to
 the client.
 
 Perhaps check the server log.
 
 Cheers
