Stefania commented on CASSANDRA-9949:
-------------------------------------
Thanks for clarifying the fix version.
Re. performance are you concerned by the loop on all cells in a column family?
We could approximate the min timestamp with the memtable creation time but I
don't think this is a good approximation and it's probably wrong if we receive
a partition from a remote host with an older timestamp. Storing the minimum
timestamp in a column family and keeping it up-to-date requires a bit of work
but we can go down this route if it is the correct choice. However I feel there
may be a different approximation that I am missing.
I also could use some hints on how to test this. Do you think a dtest is
achievable? I'm not so sure how easy it is to simulate a 'very-out-of-order'
write.
> maxPurgeableTimestamp needs to check memtables too
