Benjamin Coverston commented on CASSANDRA-5351:
-----------------------------------------------

I think this is a good idea. In fact, triggering when the un-repaired size gets 
to be above some configured threshold means that repairs can be tuned for your 
environment. If we had a set of SSTables that are 'repaired', another 'pending 
repair', and another set of 'not yet scheduled for repair' (or queued for 
future repair) you could actually monitor your system to see if repairs are 
'keeping up' with your data volumes.

> Repair has always built its merkle tree from all the data in a columnfamily, 
> which is guaranteed to work but is inefficient.
> We can improve this by remembering which sstables have already been 
> successfully repaired, and only repairing sstables new since the last repair. 
>  (This automatically makes CASSANDRA-3362 much less of a problem too.)
> The tricky part is, compaction will (if not taught otherwise) mix repaired 
> data together with non-repaired.  So we should segregate unrepaired sstables 
> from the repaired ones.
