------------------------------------------------------------------
You can upgrade to (at least) 2.1.13, the issue doesn't appear on it anymore.
I've ran similar tests against 2.1.5 and 2.1.13.
2.1.5:
{code}
Read 1 live and 23 tombstoned cells [SharedPool-Worker-3] | 2016-04-14
21:05:09.391000 | 127.0.0.1 |
{code}
2.1.13
{code}
Read 1 live and 0 tombstone cells [SharedPool-Worker-3] | 2016-04-14
21:01:01.666000 | 127.0.0.1 |
{code}
Issue doesn't appear on {{3.x}} either.

> Updating a CQL List many times creates many tombstones
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-10547
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10547
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: Cassandra 2.1.9, Java driver 2.1.5
> Reporter: James Bishop
> Assignee: Alex Petrov
> Fix For: 2.1.13
>
> Attachments: tombstone.snippet
>
>
> We encountered a TombstoneOverwhelmingException in cassandra system.log which
> caused some of our CQL queries to fail.
> We are able to reproduce this issue by updating a CQL List column many times.
> The number of tombstones created seems to be related to (number of list items
> * number of list updates). We update the entire list on each update using the
> java driver. (see attached code for details)
> Running nodetool compact does not help, but nodetool flush does. It appears
> that the tombstones are being accumulated in memory.
> For example if we update a list of 100 items 1000 times, this creates more
> than 100,000 tombstones and exceeds the default tombstone_failure_threshold.
