> An endpoint snitch that automatically and dynamically infers "distance" to
> other machines without having to explicitly configure rack and datacenter
> positions solves two problems:
> The killer feature here is adapting to things like compaction or a
> failing-but-not-yet-dead disk. This is important, since when we are doing
> reads we pick the "closest" replica for actually reading data from (and only
> read md5s from other replicas). This means that if the closest replica by
> network topology is temporarily slow due to compaction (for instance), we'll
> have to block for its reply even if we get the other replies much much faster.
> Not having to manually re-sync your configuration with your network topology
> when changes (adding machines) are made is a nice bonus.
