> Given the following schema:
> {code:java}
> CREATE KEYSPACE IF NOT EXISTS accord WITH replication = {'class':
> 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor': 3};
> CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS accord.list_append(id int PRIMARY KEY,contents
> LIST<bigint>);
> TRUNCATE accord.list_append;{code}
> And the following two possible queries executed by 10 threads in parallel:
> {code:java}
> BEGIN TRANSACTION
> LET row = (SELECT * FROM list_append WHERE id = ?);
> SELECT row.contents;
> COMMIT TRANSACTION;"
> BEGIN TRANSACTION
> UPDATE list_append SET contents += ? WHERE id = ?;
> COMMIT TRANSACTION;"
> {code}
> there seems to be an issue with transaction guarantees. Here's an excerpt in
> the edn format from a test.

> Processes process 6 and process 7 are appending the values 553 and 455
> respectively. 455 succeeded and a read by process 5 confirms that. But then
> also 553 is appended and a read by process 1 confirms that as well, however
> it sees 553 before 455.
> process 5 reads [... 852 352 455] where as process 1 reads [... 852 352 553
> 455] and the latter order is returned in subsequent reads as well.
> [~blambov] suggested that one reason for that behavior could be the way how
> unfrozen lists are updated. The backing datatype is a _kind of a map_ which
> uses insertion timestamps as indexes which are used to sort the list when the
> list is composed from chunks from various sources/sstables before being
> returned to the client.
> In such a case it indeed can happen, that process 5 reads [... 852 352 455]
> but later process 1 reads [... 852 352 553 455] because 553 has been
> _appended_ with an earlier timestamp than 455 but it has been _committed_
> with a later timestamp.
> Now with Accord we have the timestamp _of the transaction_ at hand. Could
> Accord use that for the index instead? Which would lead to the correct
> behavior? The value 553 has been appended after 455 and using the transaction
> id/timestamp as the list index would place it properly in the underlying map,
> wouldn't it?
> Steps to reproduce:
>
> {code:java}
> git clone https://github.com/datastax/accordclient.git
> git checkout append-to-list-index
> lein run --list-append -t 10 -r 1,2,3,4,5 -n 1000 -H <host-ips> -s `date
> +%s%N` > test-la.edn
