-----------------------------------

             Summary: Liberate cassandra.yaml parameter names from their units
                 Key: CASSANDRA-9691
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9691
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Benedict
            Assignee: Benedict
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.x


The arbitrary units have bugged me for too long. 

I would like to see, instead of {{trickle_fsync_interval_in_kb=1024}} 
{{trickle_fsync_interval=1MiB}}, and instead of {{max_hint_window_in_ms = 3 * 
3600 * 1000}}, {{max_hint_window=3h}}

We aren't currently even consistent, with {{counter_cache_save_period}} not 
specifying its units, and {{stream_throughput_outbound_megabits_per_sec=200}}  
is tremendously ugly (vs {{inter_dc_stream_throughput_outbound=25MiB/s}} or 
{{inter_dc_stream_throughput_outbound=200MBit/s}})

This is really trivial, and would make our config file look a lot less ugly. Of 
course, we'll have to support both in parallel for a period.
