Aaron Whiteside commented on CASSANDRA-9328:
--------------------------------------------
Completely agree here, if you need to add some sort of versioning/transaction
id to detect changes then using CAS/LWT is pointless and you can achieve the
same result with Cassandra's default eventual consistency behavior +
versioning/transaction id.
Which means CAS/LWT are completely broken and meaningless.
> WriteTimeoutException thrown when LWT concurrency > 1, despite the query

> WriteTimeoutException thrown when LWT concurrency > 1, despite the query
> duration taking MUCH less than cas_contention_timeout_in_ms.
> Unit test attached, run against a 3 node cluster running 2.1.5.
> If you reduce the threadCount to 1, you never see a WriteTimeoutException. If
> the WTE is due to not being able to communicate with other nodes, why does
> the concurrency >1 cause inter-node communication to fail?
