Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1673:
-------------------------------------------
The compaction methods already take a gcBefore parameter, which tells it how
old tombstones have to be before it can leave them out. Exposing that as an
option in the compaction (and cleanup) jmx mbean would be the easiest solution.
> Add a way to force remove tombstones before GCGraceSeconds
