---------------------------------------------------------------------

Would a CL.HALF be sufficient to meet the requirements here (rather than 
CL.INTEGER)? 

RF3 - CL.HALF (rounding up) write + CL.QUORUM read > 3
RF4 - CL.HALF write + CL.QUORUM read > 4
RF5 - CL.HALF (rounding up) write + CL.QUORUM read > 5
RF6 - CL.HALF + CL.QUORUM read > 6
...etc

Might be a little more opaque due to rounding for odd RFs, but it would 
probably be simpler to implement than a CL.INTEGER

> Currently, for C* read/write requests with quorum consistent level, number of 
> replicas required for quorum write is W=N/2+1, and number of replicas 
> required for quorum read is R=N/2+1 as well. 
> It works fine in odd number of replicas case, which R + W = N + 1, but in 
> even number of replicas case, like RF=4, 6, 8, the R+W = N + 2, which means 
> we are having two overlapping nodes in read/write requests, which is not 
> necessary. It can not provide strong consistency, but will hurts P99 read 
> latency a lot (2X in our production cluster).
> In a lot of other database, like Amazon Aurora, they use W = N/2 + 1 and R = 
> N/2 for quorum requests, which will provide enough strong consistency, but 
> talk to one less replica in read path. "We use a quorum model with 6 votes (V 
> = 6), a write quorum of 4/6 (Vw = 4), and a read quorum of 3/6 (Vr = 3)."
> I propose we do the same optimization, change read quorum to talk to N/2 
> replicas, which should reduce the read latency for quorum read in general.
