Subject: Limit on amount of CFs

Hi,
Reading in the documentation (specially on the tuning section) is clear the
the number of Column Families affects the performance, in particular the
amount of memory assigned to the heap.

My question is: What's the hard limit on the number of CFs?
Does anybody implemented an application with large number of CFs? if so,
whats that number?

Thanks


Nicolas Santini
