Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-7918:
-------------------------------------

I'm not sure my opinion should carry as much weight here, however I'll restate 
what I've said privately: my concern is that this has languished for getting on 
for a year, and if we commit without improving the graphs the little pressure 
there is will vanish, and we'll all make do for another year or more. 
Committing doesn't buy the _project_ much, but getting better graphs sooner 
buys it quite a lot. Not committing perhaps costs the users who would like this 
now a little, but potentially buys them the better decision making of improved 
graphs sooner in trade. 

To me that makes delay a net win, but that's only my finger in air wild 
assumptions. 

TL;DR: I'd prefer we harnessed the little pressure we're getting for this, by 
delaying commit until we can improve the graphs, so we're encouraged to do so 
sooner.

Either that or we commit as is and assign somebody the task of improving the 
graphs, and they commit to delivering them within the next two months (meaning 
we may get them before christmas :)), say.

> Whilst cstar makes some pretty graphs, they're a little limited and also
