It doesn't tell you anything if file ends it with "ic-###", except pointing out the SSTable version it uses ("ic" in this case).

Files related to secondary index contain something like this in the filename: <KS>-<CF>.<IDX-NAME>, while in "regular" CFs do not contain any dots except the one just before file extension.

Also, looking through the log, it appears a lot of the files end with ic-#### 
which I assume is associated with a secondary index I have on the table.  Are 
secondary indexes really expensive from a file descriptor standpoint?  That 
particular table uses the default compaction scheme...

I have one table that is using leveled.  It was set to 10MB, I will try 
changing it to 256MB.  Is there a good way to merge the existing sstables?

Are you using leveled compaction?  If so, what do you have the file size set 
at?  If you're using the defaults, you'll have a ton of really small files.  I 
believe Albert Tobey recommended using 256MB for the table sstable_size_in_mb 
to avoid this problem.

I'm running into a problem where instances of my cluster are hitting over 450K 
open files.  Is this normal for a 4 node 1.2.6 cluster with replication factor

up, but I plan on having a much larger load so I'm wondering if I should be 
looking at something else….

Let me know if you need more info…
