Yang Yang updated CASSANDRA-2103:
---------------------------------

    Comment: was deleted

(was: there could be a problem with trying to rely on forcing compaction order:

if you base the intended order on max timestamp of each sstable, the timestamp 
is not trustworthy, because a single malicious client request can bump up its 
timestamp to the future, and arbitrarily change the order of compaction, thus 
rendering the approach in 2735 useless.

you can't base the order on the physical sstable flush time either, since 
different nodes have different flush times.

overall I think trying to fix the compaction order is not the correct direction 
to attack this problem: the issue here is due to the changing order between 
*individual counter adds/deletes* (auto-expire is same as delete), this order 
can be different between different counters, so you have to fix the order 
between the updates within each counter, *not the order between ensembles of 
counters*. such ensembles of counters do not guarantee any orders at all, due 
to randomness in flushing time, or message delivery (they have similar effects)
