About Datastax "Monitoring a Cassandra cluster" Documentation

Question

In this [1] document, when it describes cfstats output it says, Read count is the Number of pending read requests. Is that correct? I was thinking that is all read requests received since last server restart.

can someone please clarify this?

Thanks, Bhathiya

Yes, you're right, the docs are wrong. cfstats read count is the number of local read requests for the table since start up.
