{quote}looks just like a flakey test to me. {quote}
Ok
{quote}you can let me know if you agree{quote}
I am at peace with that :)

> Allow TWCS to ignore overlaps when dropping fully expired sstables

> http://thelastpickle.com/blog/2016/12/08/TWCS-part1.html explains it well. If
> you really want read-repairs you're going to have sstables blocking the
> expiration of other fully expired SSTables because they overlap.
> You can set unchecked_tombstone_compaction = true or tombstone_threshold to a
> very low value and that will purge the blockers of old data that should
> already have expired, thus removing the overlaps and allowing the other
> SSTables to expire.
> The thing is that this is rather CPU intensive and not optimal. If you have
> time series, you might not care if all your data doesn't exactly expire at
> the right time, or if data re-appears for some time, as long as it gets
> deleted as soon as it can. And in this situation I believe it would be really
> beneficial to allow users to simply ignore overlapping SSTables when looking
> for fully expired ones.
> To the question: why would you need read-repairs ?
> - Full repairs basically take longer than the TTL of the data on my dataset,
> so this isn't really effective.
> - Even with a 10% chances of doing a repair, we found out that this would be
> enough to greatly reduce entropy of the most used data (and if you have
> timeseries, you're likely to have a dashboard doing the same important
> queries over and over again).
> - LOCAL_QUORUM is too expensive (need >3 replicas), QUORUM is too slow.
> I'll try to come up with a patch demonstrating how this would work, try it on
> our system and report the effects.
> cc: [~adejanovski], [~rgerard] as I know you worked on similar issues already.
