Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-397:
------------------------------------------
The point is that RingCache is not aware of TokenMetadata.bootstrapNodes, so
fat clients using it cannot ever "discover" bootstrapping nodes. Rather than
making RingCache even more complex now (and again, when we do load balancing /
node decommissioning) it seems like making the nodes doing the work is a better
encapsulation.

> Bootstrap mode makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot with RingCache
> (see CASSANDRA-197).
> One solution would be to have the node that is providing data to the new,
> bootstrapping node, echo writes to the new node. Currently, the coordinator
> node is in charge of including the new node as an "extra" replica, but if a
> fat client is using messagingservice directly with RingCache that doesn't
> work.
