Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-12212:
-----------------------------------------------
Mostly correct. "only for a very short period of time" is not true. Pre-2.1
counter cells can remain in the system potentially forever, as there is no
guarantee old counter values would ever be overridden.
> system.compactions_in_progress needs to be used on first upgrade to 3.0
