Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-5351:
-------------------------------------------
Then the question becomes, who should be the repair coordinator? If you say
"the first replicay from the ReplicationStrategy," then what do you do if that
node is down while other nodes receive data, and doesn't know it's supposed to
kick one off?
It's a whole can of worms that I'd rather not open so I hope someone has a
better idea. :)

> Key: CASSANDRA-5351
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5351
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Assignee: Lyuben Todorov
> Labels: repair
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> 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.
