Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-2961:
---------------------------------------------
bq. hamscrest : In my case, It's true, I just use hamcrest with "is" into
assert. There is a lot of other verb which interesting to make asserting more
readable. Tt was for help for next but if you want I can remove it. tell me you
do you prefer.
I don't think it's providing enough utility yet to justify another dependency.
bq. VersionedValue.getExpireTime : It's true, I put it in the Gossiper? a
utility class?
I think I would pass the expire times to the VV constructors and put the actual
generation of the times in Gossiper.
bq. There is 3 calls to excise in SS : handleStateLeft, handleStateRemoving
and... removeToken.
In removeToken, we don't have the "pieces" of the VV which contain expireTime.
So we can't extract an expireTime.
That's because in removeToken, we are responsible for the generation of the
expireTime (we are the removal coordinator.)

> Currently dead states are held until aVeryLongTime, 3 days. The problem is
> that if a node reboots within this period, it begins a new 3 days and will
> repopulate the ring with the dead state. While mostly harmless, perpetuating
> the state forever is at least wasting a small amount of bandwidth. Instead,
> we can expire states based on a ttl, which will require that the cluster be
> loosely time synced; within the quarantine period of 60s.
