Jason Brown commented on CASSANDRA-9237:
----------------------------------------
bq. Any redefinition of liveness or heartbeat generation belongs in a new ticket
Agreed, and will do so.
bq. Why not just switch it back to GOSSIP + INTERNAL if we're going to consider
that?
I wonder if [~benedict]'s earlier statement backs up what you are saying:
bq. TCP connections are generally designed to share bandwidth fairly, so having
an extra connection means a low traffic high priority connection will be more
likely to see its messages arrive promptly.
Thus, "cutting to the head of the line" is quite possibly achieved, albeit in a
slightly different manner.
