Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-9673:
----------------------------------------------

bq. do we also need a BATCH_RESPONSE verb or should we just keep on using 
REQUEST_RESPONSE? I've added BATCH_RESPONSE but it is functionally identical to 
REQUEST_RESPONSE.

No, we reuse {{REQUEST_RESPONSE}} for almost everything. You do create a new 
response message class, but reuse the same verb. Look at the branch for 
CASSANDRA-6230 to see how {{HintResponse}} is being handled.

bq. Another question is whether we need to introduce a new stage or is it OK to 
keep on using Stage.MUTATION?

We don't *need* to, but it might already have been done by CASSANDRA-6477.

bq. do we already have a ticket or plan for fixing compatibility with older 
nodes?

>
> Currently we allocate an on-heap {{ByteBuffer}} to serialize the batched 
> mutations into, before sending it to a distant node, generating unnecessary 
> garbage (potentially a lot of it).
> With materialized views using the batchlog, it would be nice to optimise the 
> write path:
> - introduce a new verb ({{Batch}})
> - introduce a new message ({{BatchMessage}}) that would encapsulate the 
> mutations, expiration, and creation time (similar to {{HintMessage}} in 
> CASSANDRA-6230)
> - have MS serialize it directly instead of relying on an intermediate buffer
> To avoid merely shifting the temp buffer to the receiving side(s) we should 
> change the structure of the batchlog table to use a list or a map of 
> individual mutations.
