Joaquin Casares commented on CASSANDRA-2279:
--------------------------------------------
I just read this and was wondering if this may be the case:
http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/Operations#Dealing_with_the_consequences_of_nodetool_repair_not_running_within_GCGraceSeconds
GCGraceSeconds was set to 30 minutes to allow the repair to finish and I waited
35 before running the compaction on the above steps.

> The steps that I took to reproduce it were:
> Create a keyspace, column family, and a key
> Delete the key on Node 1 using the cli (del cf['key'];)
> Flush
> Repair on a cluster with more than 1 node
> Wait GCSeconds
> Compact
> And the empty row would appear on Node 2
> However, when I was able to get rid of the empty rows, I was following these
> steps on a single machine:
> Create a keyspace, column family, and a key
> Delete the key
> Flush
> Sample write (writing to some temporary key)
> Deleting the attribute to that temporary key (not the entire key)
> Flush
> Compact
> or these steps:
> Create a keyspace, column family, and a key
> Delete the key
> Flush
> Wait GCseconds
> Compact
