Christopher Smith commented on CASSANDRA-6106:
----------------------------------------------
I am curious about how you think this patch makes things worse than before. Can
you describe a scenario?
Regarding the LWT solution... what would you do to resolve two LWT's with the
same timestamps and condition clause, but different updates to the same cells?
> QueryState.getTimestamp() & FBUtilities.timestampMicros() reads current
> timestamp with System.currentTimeMillis() * 1000 instead of System.nanoTime()
> / 1000

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Environment: DSE Cassandra 3.1, but also HEAD
> Reporter: Christopher Smith
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: collision, conflict, timestamp
> Attachments: microtimstamp.patch

> I noticed this blog post: http://aphyr.com/posts/294-call-me-maybe-cassandra
> mentioned issues with millisecond rounding in timestamps and was able to
> reproduce the issue. If I specify a timestamp in a mutating query, I get
> microsecond precision, but if I don't, I get timestamps rounded to the
> nearest millisecond, at least for my first query on a given connection, which
> substantially increases the possibilities of collision.

> all uses of System.currentTimeMillis() with System.nanoTime().
