• -- separates an option and argument that could be mistaken for a option.
• key-cache-keys-to-save is the number of keys from the key cache to save to the saved caches directory.

Description 

This command saves the specified number of key and row caches to the saved caches directory, which you specify in the cassandra.yaml. The key-cache-keys-to-save argument corresponds to the key_cache_keys_to_save in the cassandra.yaml, which is disabled by default, meaning all keys will be saved. The row-cache-keys-to-save argument corresponds to the row_cache_keys_to_save in the cassandra.yaml, which is disabled by default.
