Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-9533:
-------------------------------------

If you're trickling one erase block every 10ms, I think most consumer grade 
SSDs will still last years. So even that's probably not worth worrying about

It's also been shown in some workloads that having a delay may help spinning 
disks, but my theoretical understanding of that is that it was unique to our 
tool, and caused the work producer (stress) to phase its work production so 
that there were fewer writes. This might be beneficial to some users as well, 
but hard to say, and probably a minority.

I've committed to 2.1, 2.2, 3.0 and trunk.

> As discussed in CASSANDRA-9504, 2.1 changed commitlog_sync_batch_window_in_ms 
> from a maximum time to wait between fsync to the minimum time, so one must be 
> very careful to keep it small enough that most writers aren't kept waiting.
