Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-856:
------------------------------------------

this is because the flush code calls switch() on the normal memtable, meaning 
flush and replace w/ a new one, but only flush() on the binary one, not 
replacing it w/ a new one

> Binary Memtable interface writes the same data after each flush.
