Hello,
I'm using Cassandra 0.6.1 and ruby's library. I did some tests on my one-node development
installation about using get_range method to scan the whole CF.
What I want to prove is if a CF with RandomPartitioner can be used with get_range getting
a fixed number of keys at a time, until all are requested. I know the keys are saved in random
order, but is that randomness fixed? or every time I ask for a range I'll get something different
even if I pass the :start parameter?
As I said above, I did this test with a 1-node installation and I seem to get the same (random)
order every call I do, but I don't know if this is a design feature or some collateral characteristic
that is likely to change in the future, or even the behaviour is different with N-node clusters.
Thanks in advance!
