Hello all, Is there a method to quickly load a large dataset into the row cache? I use row caching as I want the entire dataset to be in memory.
I'm running a Cassandra-1.2 database server with a dataset of 5550000 records (6GB size) and a row cache of 6GB. Key caching is disabled and I am using SerializingCacheProvider. The machine running the Cassandra server has 7GB memory and 2 CPUs. I have a YCSB client running on another machine and it runs a readonly benchmark on the Cassandra server. As the benchmark progresses, the Cassandra server loads the dataset into the row cache. However, it takes up to 2 hours to load the entire dataset into the row cache. Is there any other method to load the entire dataset into row cache quickly (does not need to use YCSB)? Any help is appreciated, Danny
