Rob Emery commented on CASSANDRA-2103:
--------------------------------------
I also agree with Nikolay, Amol and Marco. This seems a little clunky to not
have any way of expiring counters. In our (presumably fairly common usecase) we
have different granularities of statistics stored in time buckets, after the
first day then the minute bucket becomes pointless. Currently the only way for
us to dispose of the unused data would be to hack it with a cronjob and delete
the buckets for the previous day, which just feels really unpleasant versus the
elegance of using TTLs on columns. I would concur with the desired behaviour of
setting the TTL on the first upsert and then ignoring attempts to set it on
subsequent updates.
