This is one where there seems to be a lot of conflicting advice out there in google-land. If we have tables with one or more wide columns - VarChar with size of over 8K in total - should these columns be moved to their own wide-column table with the initial table simply linking to them? Is there much of an advantage/disadvantage to this, or does it actually depend on how much is stored in them, not the empty column widths? -- Michael Cole
