Christian Spriegel commented on CASSANDRA-3710:
-----------------------------------------------
Hi Dave, does this patch also disable snapshots for truncate?
I would expect an "if" in ColumnFamilyStore.truncate() (line 1698).

> Let me first say, I hate this idea. It gives cassandra the ability to
> permanently delete data at a large scale without any means of recovery.
> However, I've seen this requested multiple times, and it is in fact useful in
> some scenarios, such as when your application is using an embedded cassandra
> instance for testing and need to truncate, which without JNA will timeout
> more often than not.
