Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3017:
-------------------------------------------

bq. Will investigate the relationship between thrift message size and 
inter-node message sizes.

I'd like to wait for this before committing.  It would suck if it turns out we 
allow Thrift messages just under the limit and silently drop the resulting 
Message.
