Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2034:
-------------------------------------------
Note that hint writes MUST be synchronous w/ the writes-as-percieved-by-client
(which the design above accomplishes) or else you lose hints silently if a
coordinator crashes (or is shut down/killed normally).
> Make Read Repair unnecessary when Hinted Handoff is enabled

> Project: Cassandra

> Original Estimate: 8h
> Remaining Estimate: 8h

> Currently, HH is purely an optimization -- if a machine goes down, enabling
> HH means RR/AES will have less work to do, but you can't disable RR entirely
> in most situations since HH doesn't kick in until the FailureDetector does.
> Let's add a scheduled task to the mutate path, such that we return to the
> client normally after ConsistencyLevel is achieved, but after RpcTimeout we
> check the responseHandler write acks and write local hints for any missing
> targets.
> This would making disabling RR when HH is enabled a much more reasonable
> option, which has a huge impact on read throughput.
