Never will say that Erlang will be faster and memory consumption will be
lower than native code. Rest of it totally agree with Brandon, in a few
words I'm talking about serious parallel project on improving Cassandra
basics.

The question just as easily be asked, why not rewrite it in Erlang ?
Probably lots of advantages to be gained there, the ability to upgrade
on the fly, native message passing, functional programming paradigm ?
But as Brandon says, you would be throwing away so much work, would it
be worth it ?

Hello,
Don't want to rise "holy war". Just let me share my crazy thoughts.
I believe it could improve Cassandra speed and robustness.
What people will say if I propose to have Cassandra engine written in
C/C++, and this engine will give you ability to run extensions in
Java, Groovy and bunch other languages like Perl/Python/Ruby?
I just want to understand for myself does this solution will be
useful or I'm looking in wrong direction?
Thank you for reading.
