Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-9985:
-------------------------------------
I wouldn't care if it weren't for the sheer number of these calls that we chain
together now, so that 75% of your code stepping is through a linked jar. With
multiple versions it is hard to link the source, and so the majority of your
debug stepping is through a morass of unknown. This patch also removes one
method call from that chain, which shrinks the height of the call tree
significantly when they're added together.
But, as I say, I figured this little patch might split opinion so I only
propose it for inclusion at the consensus of the community.
It;s worth noting that CASSANDRA-9975 also mitigates the problem, however it
leaves a lot of these iterators in the call tree.

> The Guava AbstractIterator not only has unnecessary method call depth, it is
> difficult to debug without attaching source. Since it's absolutely trivial to
> write our own, and it's used widely within the codebase, I think we should do
> so.
