Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-463:
------------------------------------------

After more thought I decided we don't want to reset the timer (as it were) 
after each update: this allows a CF that grows large very slowly, or reaches a 
steady state (the same keys are modified over and over) to block commitlog 
purge indefinitely.  Instead, set a large enough lifetime that most CFs will 
flush out normally during that time and you only have to worry about catching 
the stragglers.

> Make FlushPeriodInMinutes default to 60
