I think the recommendation once upon a time was to keep wide storage engine internal rows from growing too large. e.g. for time series, it was recommended to partition samples by day or by hour to keep the size manageable.
What's the current cassandra 2.0 advice on sizing for wide storage engine rows? Can we drop the added complexity of managing day/hour partitioning for time series stores? And what do you watch out for if the storage engine rows are a bit uncomfortably large? Do extra large rows slow the read path at all? Or something subtle like added latency from GC pressure at compaction time? Cheers, Lee
