> With memcache many people are willing to sacrifice durability for
> performance. Cassandra has a TimeToLive feature that can be used in caching
> scenarios with low values for gc_grace_seconds. However from a code dive it
> seems that cassandra will always write TTL to disk, even those that are
> beyond gc_grace_seconds. If a use case very large memtables,small ttl, and
> small gc_grace it is possible that flushing these columns to disk can be
> skipped entirely in some scenarios.
