I did extensive performance testing and tuning on Cassandra, working closely with DataStax support.
This is why I created the ingest () methods in SDC *, which are very fast in 1.0.4.RELEASE and above.
This method caches the PreparedStatement for you, and then iterates over the individual Bind values ββand calls executeAsync for each insert. This sounds contrast intuitive, but it is the fastest (and most balanced) way to insert into Cassandra.
