> *Issue*
> When you have TombstoneOverwhelmingExceptions occuring in queries, this will
> cause the query to be simply dropped on every data-node, but no response is
> sent back to the coordinator. Instead the coordinator waits for the specified
> read_request_timeout_in_ms.
> On the application side this can cause memory issues, since the application
> is waiting for the timeout interval for every request.Therefore, if our
> application runs into TombstoneOverwhelmingExceptions, then (sooner or later)
> our entire application cluster goes down :-(
> *Proposed solution*
> I think the data nodes should send a error message to the coordinator when
> they run into a TombstoneOverwhelmingException. Then the coordinator does not
> have to wait for the timeout-interval.
