Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-8965:
-------------------------------------
This is no longer such an issue with 3.0, as the descriptor is now shared
between the writers via the {{TransactionLog}}. We still can have multiple
{{TransactionLog}} operating over the same directories, however, and 2.1 and
2.2 still retain the descriptor in 2.1 and 2.2
> Cassandra retains a file handle to the directory its writing to for each
> writer instance

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug

> We could either share this amongst the CF object, or have a shared
> ref-counted cache that opens a reference and shares it amongst all writer
> instances, closing it once they all close.
