Benjamin Coverston commented on CASSANDRA-47:
---------------------------------------------
I was worried a bit about this ticket while working on 1608 because it had the
potential to be a hairy merge. Looking through the patch however the
implementation looks clean, unobtrusive and well encapsulated. This makes me
really excited. Contrary to my initial fears I'm anticipating that this will
actually help with 1608 and probably even help increase IO throughput in the
data directory in a dramatic way.
+1 for this approach.
