             Summary: Make hint window persistent across restarts
                 Key: CASSANDRA-14309
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14309
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Hints
            Reporter: Kurt Greaves
            Assignee: Kurt Greaves


The current hint system stores a window of hints as defined by 
{{max_hint_window_in_ms}}, however this window is not persistent across 
restarts.

Examples (cluster with RF=3 and 3 nodes, A, B, and C):
 # A goes down
 # X ms of hints are stored for A on B and C
 # A is restarted
 # A goes down again without hints replaying from B and C
 # B and C will store up to another {{max_hint_window_in_ms}} of hints for A

 
 # A goes down
 # X ms of hints are stored for A on B and C
 # B is restarted
 # B will store up to another {{max_hint_window_in_ms}} of hints for A

 

Note that in both these scenarios they can continue forever. If A or B keeps 
getting restarted hints will continue to pile up.

 

Idea of this ticket is to stop this behaviour from happening and only ever 
store up to {{max_hint_window_in_ms}} of hints for a particular node.
