---------------------------------------
Priority: Critical (was: Minor)
> RangeTombstones not merging during compaction

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug

> When performing a compaction on two sstables that contain the same
> RangeTombstone with different timestamps, the tombstones are not merged in
> the new sstable.
> This has been tested using cassandra 2.1 with the following table:
> {code}
> CREATE TABLE test(
> key text,
> column text,
> data text,
> PRIMARY KEY(key, column)
> );
> {code}
> And then doing the following:
> {code}
> INSERT INTO test (key, column, data) VALUES ("1", "1", "1"); // If the
> sstable only contains tombstones during compaction it seems that the sstable
> either gets removed or isn't created (but that could probably be a separate
> JIRA issue).
> INSERT INTO test (key, column, data) VALUES ("1", "2", "2"); // The inserts
> are not actually needed, since the deletes create tombstones either way.
> DELETE FROM test WHERE key="1" AND column="2";
> nodetool flush
> INSERT INTO test (key, column, data) VALUES ("1", "2", "2");
> DELETE FROM test WHERE key="1" AND column="2";
> nodetool flush
> nodetool compact
> {code}
> When checking with the SSTableExport tool two tombstones exists in the
> compacted sstable. This can be repeated, resulting in more and more
> tombstones.
