Nope. Didn't change the schema, mainly added read coalescing and used ICS. I think the big thing is when Scylla is processing a bunch of tombstones it's able to do so in a way that doesn't choke the whole server. Latest Scylla version also can send back partial/empty pages to the client to limit the amount of work per query that is run.

Oh that's pretty neat. Did you just end up being okay with large partitions? I've been really afraid to let partition sizes grow beyond 100k rows even if the rows themselves are tiny but I'm not really sure how much of a real-world performance impact it has. It definitely complicates the data model to break the partitions up though.

Yeah it just worked a lot better on scylla.
