Christian Spriegel commented on CASSANDRA-3710:
-----------------------------------------------
I am one guy who an issue with snapshots triggered by truncate (Brandon thinks
that snapshotting is causing my problem).
I guess there is no real reason why anyone would _need_ that. Its just that for
embedding into a testsuite its simply not needed to snapshot data and it makes
the setup harder.
For me snapshots are still not working, even though I have jna in my classpath.
I guess there must be something wrong with maven-surefire. But I guess this is
not the topic here.

> Let me first say, I hate this idea. It gives cassandra the ability to

> However, I've seen this requested multiple times, and it is in fact useful in

> instance for testing and need to truncate, which without JNA will timeout
> more often than not.
